Los Cowboys posponen las conversaciones de extensión a largo plazo con el receptor George Pickens tras aplicarle la etiqueta de jugador franquicia

Los Dallas Cowboys han pausado las negociaciones para una extensión de contrato a largo plazo con el receptor George Pickens, quien recibió la etiqueta de jugador franquicia en febrero y jugará la temporada 2026 por un salario totalmente garantizado de 27.3 millones de dólares. El ejecutivo Stephen Jones anunció la decisión durante una conferencia de prensa previa al draft en Frisco, Texas, el 22 de abril, tras la destacada temporada 2025 de Pickens después de su traspaso desde los Pittsburgh Steelers.

Stephen Jones confirmó que los Cowboys notificaron a Pickens y a su agente, David Mulugheta, sobre la decisión de retrasar las conversaciones de extensión hasta después de la temporada 2026. La etiqueta de jugador franquicia, aplicada a principios de este año como se esperaba ampliamente, asegura a Pickens por 27.3 millones de dólares en medio de su rápido ascenso en Dallas junto a CeeDee Lamb. Jones hizo comparaciones con casos anteriores de etiquetas aplicadas a Dak Prescott y Tony Pollard, en los que posteriormente se alcanzaron acuerdos a largo plazo. El entrenador en jefe, Brian Schottenheimer, elogió el encuentro positivo y la influencia del receptor de 25 años en el vestuario, declarando: 'La influencia que tiene en este vestuario es muy poderosa porque ama jugar al fútbol americano profundamente'. Este avance desplaza el enfoque de los rumores previos sobre su extensión hacia su desempeño bajo la etiqueta de jugador franquicia.
