Cowboys get huge George Pickens news for Week 9 vs. Colts as trade rumors swirl

The Dallas Cowboys are facing a major setback ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts due to a series of injuries and trade rumors surrounding wide receiver George Pickens. CBS Sports reports that Pickens will miss the game due to a shoulder and hamstring issue, while cornerback Joey Porter Jr. is sidelined with an ankle injury and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is out with a back and hamstring injury.

These absences create a significant blow to the Cowboys' offensive capabilities as they gear up to face the 2-6 Colts. However, the news comes as trade speculation continues to swirl around Pickens, who is a coveted free agent. Despite the team's best efforts to keep him healthy for a potential trade, Dallas may find themselves relying on CeeDee Lamb and Ryan Flournoy at wide receiver, with Jonathan Mingo and Camden Brown also playing a role in the rotation.

If they can secure a victory against the Colts, it would provide Dallas with the momentum they need to maintain their position in the NFC East.
