The Cowboys’ trade for wide receiver George Pickens gives the team the complement to CeeDee Lamb that they’ve been missing, but the word from the team isn’t that they see Pickens as just a running mate for No. 88.
The 49ers signed Brandon Aiyuk to a big contract before the 2024 season and they had Deebo Samuel in the middle of his own sizable extension, but neither one wound up being the team’s leading receiver at the end of the year.
Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks saw his chances of playing in 2025 come to an end last week when the team placed him on the physically unable to perform list.
A report last month indicated that running back James Cook will play for the Bills in 2025 despite being unlikely to get the contract extension he’s looking for ahead of the season, but Cook isn’t publicly committing to anything at this point in the calendar.
