CeeDee Lamb Displeased by Micah Parsons Recruiting George Pickens to Packers
The Dallas Cowboys face an important decision regarding wide receiver George Pickens, who will enter free agency soon unless re-signed. Pickens’ potential status as a free agent positioned him as a sought-after player during the recent Pro Bowl Games.
CeeDee Lamb Reacts to Micah Parsons’ Recruitment of Pickens
Teammate CeeDee Lamb expressed his frustration over Micah Parsons, a former Cowboy now with the Green Bay Packers, actively recruiting Pickens. During an interview with Kay Adams, Lamb indicated that Parsons was not discreet in his attempts to sway Pickens, saying, “Everybody in my face is trying to recruit him while I’m standing right next to them.”
Concerns Over Recruitment
Lamb specifically mentioned Parsons, stating, “I don’t know what’s going on with him. He’s a little too active to be on a scooter.” The excitement over Pickens’ potential free agency also attracted the interest of Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon, which led Lamb to note, “Green Bay clearly wants him.”
Lamb’s Commitment to Keeping Pickens
CeeDee Lamb is highly motivated to keep Pickens in Dallas. When asked whether he would accept a pay cut to ensure Pickens stays, he answered affirmatively. “I don’t care about that, I just want my man to get what he’s deserving,” Lamb declared. He emphasized that his priority is competing at a high level and winning a championship.
Impressive Season for Pickens
- George Pickens had an outstanding season in Dallas:
- 93 receptions
- 1,429 receiving yards
- 9 touchdowns
With these career highs, it’s clear that Pickens has thrived with the Cowboys. Lamb and Pickens have developed a strong bond, even playfully referring to themselves as “Mario and Luigi.”
The Future of George Pickens
As the Cowboys evaluate their next steps, the decisions made by team management, including Jerry Jones, will be pivotal. Given Pickens’ performances and Lamb’s commitment to keep him, it seems vital for Dallas to consider their options carefully in the offseason.
