Dallas, TX – Don’t close the offseason trade window just yet. According to fresh reports, the Dallas Cowboys are making moves behind the scenes — and they’ve set their sights high: targeting a star receiver from the Pittsburgh Steelers.
With a glaring need to add another playmaker alongside CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys reportedly approached the Steelers about acquiring George Pickens — the electrifying young wideout known for his jaw-dropping catches and fiery playstyle.
Sources from ESPN indicate that the Cowboys reached out to an AFC North team (and all signs point to Pittsburgh) just before the 2025 NFL Draft, hoping to pull off a blockbuster deal. The Steelers, having already dealt away a second-round pick for DK Metcalf, were rumored to be listening to offers for Pickens to recoup assets.
However, talks reportedly cooled down as Pittsburgh began leaning toward extending Pickens’ contract rather than moving on from their dynamic receiver. Still, insiders believe this trade scenario is far from dead — especially if Dallas returns with an even stronger offer this summer.
One thing is clear: The Cowboys aren’t backing down. With championship hopes burning and a clear void at WR2, they appear willing to make a bold move to give Dak Prescott another elite weapon.
The drama is just getting started. Stay tuned — the question remains: will the Steelers’ rising star swap black and gold for silver and blue before the 2025 season kicks off?
