Cowboys fans can breathe easy — it looks like star wide receiver George Pickens will be ready to roll for Thursday night’s matchup against the Detroit Lions.
Pickens showed up on Monday’s injury report as a limited participant with calf and knee soreness, but the concern didn’t last long. He was back to practicing in full on Tuesday, and as long as he stays on that path through Wednesday, Dallas should have its top playmaker available under the bright lights.
And that’s huge. Pickens is in the middle of a flat-out explosive breakout season. He’s already piled up 73 catches, 1,142 yards, and 8 touchdowns, becoming one of the main engines behind the Cowboys’ three-game winning streak.
With Pickens trending toward being a full go, Dallas will have one of its most dangerous weapons ready as they chase a fourth straight victory.
