George Pickens: “Cowboys Are Home – Steelers Never Believed in Me”

George Pickens shook the NFL world this week after calling out his former team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and declaring the Dallas Cowboys as “the first family that truly believed in me.” On a podcast released yesterday, Pickens didn’t hold back: “I used to be a tenant. Now, I’ve found a home.”

He described his time in Pittsburgh as “a place that suppressed individuality,” hinting that certain coaches never trusted his free-flowing style. “I wasn’t allowed to be myself. I had to stay quiet even when I knew I could explode on the field.”

Everything changed the day he joined the Cowboys. “Dallas is the first place that made me feel like more than just a chess piece – I’m part of something bigger,” he said. Photos of Pickens laughing during drills with Dak Prescott and Micah Parsons have gone viral, painting a clear picture: the man’s found his people.

This move will undoubtedly reignite tensions between Steelers and Cowboys fans. But for Pickens, the lines have already been drawn.
