## Resource

George Pickens is locked in for the 2026 season with the Dallas Cowboys under a one-year franchise tag worth $27.3 million, after negotiations for a long-term deal stalled. The 2025 breakout star—93 catches, 1,429 yards, 9 TDs alongside CeeDee Lamb—remains a top-tier weapon. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is bullish, betting Pickens will have another monster year and positioning the tag as a strategic move: it buys time for the team to plan while giving Pickens a chance to boost his market value for a potential mega-deal in 2027.
