The arrival of George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys has generated a lot of excitement among NFL experts, but what has caught the attention of many is the uncomfortable silence of quarterback Dak Prescott, who has not shown the slightest enthusiasm for the signing of the explosive receiver.
At least not publicly, Dak does not usually appear much on social networks and has remained on the sidelines about the signing of Pickens, who despite having a reputation for being controversial, will be one more target for Prescott.

Pickens, from the Pittsburgh Steelers, arrives to bolster an offense that was in dire need of another vertical threat. CeeDee Lamb remains the centerpiece, but in 2023 the second best receiver was tight end Jake Ferguson, followed by Jalen Tolbert, with just 49 receptions.
Dallas chose not to address that lack in the draft. New head coach Brian Schottenheimer defended the youth of the current receiving group, although owner Jerry Jones had previously spoken of “substantial” moves

However, the lack of public support from Prescott raises questions about the chemistry with Jerry Jones‘ strategy to surround him for the 2025 season. For now, the quarterback’s silence overshadows a reinforcement that, at least on paper, should benefit him more than anyone else.
Why should Dak Prescott celebrate the arrival of George Pickens?
Dak Prescott has only played one full season in the last three due to constant injuries, and if the Cowboys quarterback is healthy, the arrival of a new weapon will increase the chances of success for the highest-paid player in the NFL with an annual salary of $60 million.
Dallas’ plan is to surround him with a good offensive line to protect him and with the retirement of Zach Martin, their first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft was Tyler Booker, who will be one of five linemen to bolster the team.
Under Schottenheimer, the other stage of the plan is to give Prescott targets, who only had the reliable hands of Lamb, although Jalen Tolbert is not bad, his other alternative was tight end Jake Ferguson, but with Pickens the quarterback’s excuses are over, although he still needs to have more ground options and would have to be the next step of reinforcement, with an explosive running back that unloads pressure to the air game.
