Cowboys' George Pickens: Full practice Friday
George Pickens (shoulder) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Tommy Yarrish of the Dallas Cowboys' official site reports.With Pickens upgrading from limited participation Thursday to full Friday, he appears to be good to go for Monday night against the Eagles. Pickens hasn't shown much of a fantasy ceiling to this point, outside of Week 5 against the Bucs when CeeDee Lamb was battling a quad issue, but few have the raw upside he possesses most weeks.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Practices Friday
George Pickens (shoulder) was present at Friday's practice, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.After being listed as a limited participant Thursday due to the shoulder issue, Pickens' presence at practice Friday is at least a positive sign for his Week 7 availability Monday night against the Eagles. It's been a slow start to the 2026 season for Pickens, who has just one 100-yard receiving game and one touchdown through six contests as fantasy's overall WR24 in half-PPR points per game.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Dealing with shoulder injury
George Pickens was a limited practice participant Thursday due to a shoulder injury, Tommy Yarrish of the Dallas Cowboys' official site reports.Pickens avoided the Cowboys' injury report through the first six weeks of the season, but he now has made an appearance to kick off Week 7 prep. Considering he was listed as limited, it may be more of a maintenance day for the fifth-year pro, who so far has begun the 2026 campaign with a 33-428-1 line on 52 targets. Pickens has two more chances to get back to full ahead of Monday's contest at Philadelphia.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Team-high 73 receiving yards in loss
George Pickens caught six of 11 targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Packers.Pickens caught his only first-half target for 16 yards. He was much busier in the second half and ended up edging out CeeDee Lamb by three receiving yards for the team lead, though Lamb led the Dallas Cowboys with nine catches on 18 targets. Pickens has picked up the pace following a slow start, notching at least 73 receiving yards in four consecutive games after posting just 68 yards in Weeks 1 and 2 combined. After scoring a career-high nine touchdowns in 2025, he's still stuck on one TD heading into a Week 7 road game against the slumping Eagles.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Set for normal duties with Lamb healthy
With CeeDee Lamb (quadriceps) healthy and cleared to play Sunday night against the Packers, George Pickens will handle his normal role as Dallas' WR2.Lamb exploded for 17 catches in Week 4, but the Dallas Cowboys made a concerted effort to get Pickens more involved last Thursday night against the Bucs, as he secured nine of 13 targets for 130 yards and a touchdown. Lamb suffered a quad bruise late in the game, and it allowed Pickens to be the clear WR1 and target hog while Lamb nursed his injury on the sideline. Pickens has weekly monster box-score upside, and he can still go off for a big line even with Lamb past his bruised thigh.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Takes turn as workhorse Thursday
George Pickens secured nine of 13 targets for 130 yards and a touchdown in the Dallas Cowboys' 24-16 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.Pickens was a bit player in the air attack during a Week 4 comeback win against the Texans during which CeeDee Lamb (quadriceps) recorded a massive 17-189-1 line on 21 targets, but it was the former's turn to shine Thursday. The fact Lamb was in and out of the game during the latter stages of the fourth quarter did have some impact on Pickens' involvement, but the latter was already having a big night that included his first receiving touchdown of the season on an 18-yard grab in the fourth quarter. Pickens ultimately finished with new season-high figures across his receiving line, and he'll be in line for a similarly busy night in a Week 6 road matchup against the Packers on Sunday night, Oct. 18 if Lamb is limited or misses that contest altogether.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Two long gains in win over Houston
George Pickens caught two of three targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.CeeDee Lamb was the target on a massive 21 of Dak Prescott's 45 pass attempts, which didn't leave much volume for any other Cowboy. Pickens made an impact when he got a chance however, hauling in receptions of 53 and 22 yards. Pickens is still looking for his first TD of 2026 after scoring a career-high nine last season, and he'll take an 18-225-0 line on 28 targets through four games into a Week 5 meeting at home against the Buccaneers.

Cowboys' George Pickens: Slight improvement in Week 2 win
George Pickens brought in six of eight targets for 40 yards in the Dallas Cowboys' 37-20 win over the Commanders on Sunday.Pickens finished second in receptions and targets on the afternoon for the Cowboys, but he wasn't very efficient on a per-catch basis. The star wideout saw CeeDee Lamb take priority Sunday, with the latter finishing with an 8-153-2 line on nine targets. Pickens remains a critical component of a high-upside Cowboys air attack, however, and his body of work last season supports the notion a breakout performance may be imminent.
