CeeDee Lamb Publicly Wants George Pickens to Stay in Dallas – And Pickens’ Response Leaves Cowboys Nation Restless

Dallas, Texas – 10/31/2025

The atmosphere at the Dallas Cowboys is heating up not just because of their winning streak, but also due to the budding friendship between CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens – two star receivers who are completely transforming the look of the Silver Star team’s offense.

After Friday morning practice, Lamb was asked about the possibility of Pickens leaving the team after the season when his contract expires. Without dodging, he answered with complete sincerity:

“That’s my guy. I feel like we connected from day one – no need to say much, just look at each other and we understand. George brings energy, explosiveness, and the spirit this locker room needs. I just want him to stay, because we still have a lot of wins to take together.”

This statement immediately spread across Cowboys fan forums, like an affirmation of the rare bond between two of the NFC’s most talented receivers.

Since Pickens was brought in from Pittsburgh during the offseason, he has quickly integrated and become the second explosive offensive weapon alongside Lamb, recording 6 touchdowns and over 680 yards in just 8 games. This duo is being compared to “Amari Cooper – CeeDee Lamb upgraded version,” and is the new hope for the Cowboys in their journey to conquer the NFC East.

However, the part that left all of Cowboys Nation “restless” came from George Pickens’ response shortly after. In the locker room, when asked by reporters about Lamb’s words, Pickens smiled and replied:

“CeeDee is the brother I never had. I love the way this team trusts me, but everything still depends on Jerry Jones. I only know one thing – if I get to choose, I want to keep wearing this jersey and bring the Lombardi Trophy back to Dallas with CeeDee.”

That short but meaningful statement sent Cowboys social media into a frenzy. Fans called it “a friendship declaration between two WRs” and a strong signal that Pickens truly wants to stay long-term.

If Jerry Jones is looking for a reason to open early negotiations, then Lamb and Pickens just delivered a reminder that couldn’t be clearer: this isn’t just an offensive duo – this is the new heart of the Cowboys.
