The Dallas Cowboys have yet to have George Pickens join them for organized team activities (OTA’s), but coach Brian Schottenheimer doesn’t seem worried about his absence.
Schottenheimer told reporters June 4 he had been in touch with Pickens, all while stressing the voluntary nature of the OTA sessions.

“[I] communicated with GP yesterday,” Schottenheimer said, referring to Pickens by his initials. “He’s got a football camp this weekend that he’s doing.”

(David Banks, Imagn Images)Schottenheimer also noted that communication with Pickens has “been good” and that the 25-year-old wide-out is “taking care of his business.”
That said, the second-year coach also acknowledged he hadn’t yet spoken to Pickens about whether he would attend the team’s mandatory session.
“I expect he’ll be here,” Schottenheimer said. “I think he’s in a good spot. I know he’s handling his business. I know he misses his teammates, and we miss him too. You guys know how we feel about him. We love him. This is just part of the business.”

Pickens’ absence comes with the fifth-year receiver currently set to play the 2026 NFL season on the franchise tag. The Cowboys slapped him with the tender – worthy a fully guaranteed $27.3 million – before free agency and haven’t yet signed him to a long-term extension.
