The Dallas Cowboys are reportedly unsure if franchise-tagged wide receiver George Pickens will attend the team's upcoming offseason program, according to Todd Archer of ESPN.
Pickens was designated as the team's franchise player earlier this spring, but his status for the start of offseason workouts remains in question. As of now, the star receiver has not signed the franchise tender, which would officially bind him to the roster for the upcoming season. Per Archer, the team is currently operating with uncertainty regarding his participation while a long-term resolution remains outstanding.
Under NFL regulations, players who have not signed their franchise tenders are not under contract and are therefore not subject to team fines for missing voluntary organized team activities (OTAs) or mandatory minicamps. The Cowboys' offseason program serves as a vital period for offensive installation and chemistry building, making Pickens' potential absence a notable development for the franchise's preparations.
