The Dallas Cowboys placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens on Tuesday. This decision, made before the March 3rd deadline, guarantees him approximately $28 million against the 2026 salary cap.
Pickens had a standout first season in Dallas, leading the team with 1,429 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. With teammates like Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb pushing for a long-term agreement, the Cowboys will now attempt to finalize a deal before free agency begins.
