The Cowboys placed the franchise tag on receiver George Pickens after months of discussion about his future in Dallas. While this move doesn’t necessarily mean Pickens is there to stay in Dallas, there’s a better chance that he’ll work out a long-term contract with the team.
However, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported on Sunday that the Cowboys are still open to trading Pickens despite placing the franchise tag on him. A “tag and trade scenario” is still a possibility for Pickens and Dallas.
