Cowboys Announce Game Availability for WR George Pickens
The Cowboys wide receiver was limited in practice all week with a hamstring injury.
Dallas Cowboys announced the availability of wide receiver George Pickens for their upcoming game against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. The Cowboys confirmed Pickens' status just 90 minutes before kickoff, providing some relief to fans concerned about his participation. However, the team also informed that cornerback Joey Porter Jr. and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown would be out of the game due to injuries.
Pickens' absence from last weekend's overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals was attributed to a hamstring injury, which he had been dealing with throughout the season. Despite his limited involvement in the last game, catching only two out of four passes for 48 yards, the Cowboys' executive vice president Stephen Jones clarified that Pickens' reduced playing time was due to his health issues.
Through eight games so far, Pickens has contributed with 39 receptions for 533 yards and two touchdowns, making him the second highest-producing receiver for the Cowboys, trailing only CeeDee Lamb.
