George Pickens Joins Dallas Cowboys: NFC East Just Got Real
Share this article:
George Pickens just landed in Dallas, and Eagles fans might need therapy.
The former Steelers wideout was officially acquired by the Cowboys in one of the most aggressive offseason moves in recent memory. Fans across the NFC East were quick to respond—mostly with panic.
With CeeDee Lamb already locking down WR1 duties, Pickens steps into a role that lets him torment CB2s all year long. The result? Chaos. “Double Lamb if you want—Pickens is coming for your soul,” one Cowboys fan tweeted. Philly cornerbacks are already looking over their shoulders.
Micah Parsons couldn’t hide his excitement either.
“We had the defense. Now we’ve got the bomb squad,” he told reporters at minicamp. The locker room vibe? Electric. Dak gets another deep threat. The offense gets nastier. And the NFC East gets scarier.
Social media is melting down. Giants fans joked about forfeiting the season. Commanders fans are begging for mercy. And one viral meme read:
“Slay covering Lamb. Pickens flying down the other side. Hurts looking at the clock: ‘Can it be 0:00 already?’”
Make no mistake—this isn’t just a flashy trade.
It’s a message. The Dallas Cowboys aren’t waiting anymore. They’re loading up for war, and George Pickens might be the wild card that breaks the division wide open.
