Cowboys’ High-Value Newcomer George Pickens Thrilled, Vows Super Bowl LX Glory
Dallas, TX – July 12, 2025
The Dallas Cowboys are abuzz with excitement as their high-value newcomer, wide receiver George Pickens, freshly acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers, expressed boundless enthusiasm and a fierce determination to capture Super Bowl LX with his new team, sources told ESPN on Saturday. His passion has electrified Cowboys Nation’s championship aspirations.
Pickens, traded to Dallas on May 7, 2025, for a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 Day 3 pick swap, signed a restructured deal estimated at $11 million over two years, reflecting his elite potential. The 24-year-old, who racked up 850 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2024 with the Steelers, shared his excitement during OTAs at The Star in Frisco. “I’m thrilled to be here—Dallas fans are unreal, and the energy is next level,” Pickens said. “I’m all in to win that Super Bowl with Dak and CeeDee. This is my shot.”
His arrival bolsters a receiving corps led by All-Pro CeeDee Lamb, who posted 1,749 yards in 2024, and quarterback Dak Prescott, who threw for 4,516 yards despite a hamstring injury. Pickens’ 6-foot-3 frame and 4.38-second 40-yard dash speed add a dynamic threat, contrasting his inconsistent chemistry with Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh. Coach Brian Schottenheimer praised his mindset, noting, “George’s drive is infectious—he’s ready to elevate us.”
The Cowboys, rebounding from a 7-10 season, see Pickens as a key piece with $32 million in cap space to support the roster. His 2024 performance, despite a 6.9% drop rate, showcased big-play ability, and fans on social platforms are hyped, with posts found on X like “Pickens to the Super Bowl!” and “New era in Dallas!” The team’s secondary, ranked 25th in pass defense last year, adds urgency to his offensive impact.
As training camp nears on July 21, Pickens’ vow to deliver Super Bowl LX glory fuels optimism. Can this high-value addition transform Dallas into champions, or will past inconsistencies haunt him? Stay tuned to ESPN for updates.
