The Dallas Cowboys landed Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens in a trade on Wednesday after an offseason-long search for another wideout.

Dallas needed another high-caliber receiver to pair with their star wideout CeeDee Lamb. As part of the trade, the Cowboys gave up a 2026 third-round draft pick plus a 2027 fifth-round pick, and the Steelers got a 2027 sixth-round pick.
