Dallas FC's George Pickens may not attend the team's mandatory minicamp, sparking concerns about his commitment to the team. The Cowboys' star receiver has been absent from voluntary OTAs and has not confirmed his attendance at minicamp. Coach Brian Schottenheimer expressed his expectation that Pickens will attend, but the receiver's body language has been unclear. Pickens has been a key player for the Cowboys, catching 93 passes for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns in his first season with the team. He has been a Pro Bowl selection and has finished third in the NFL in receiving yards. The Cowboys have placed the franchise tag on Pickens, which earns him $27.3 million across the 2026 season. If Pickens does not attend minicamp, he will be fined for every day he misses. The team has made it clear that it does not plan to extend Pickens this offseason, despite his stellar performance. Schottenheimer has said that the team will be 'smart' with their usage of Pickens in practice if he does attend.
