Overview
- Executive Stephen Jones said Pickens was held out for missing the team bus on gameday, while Lamb’s discipline stemmed from breaking a 10 p.m. curfew the night before.
- Brian Schottenheimer made the call and “is not going to play favorites,” according to Jones, and Jerry Jones reiterated that road trips are business trips.
- After sitting the opening series, Pickens posted nine catches for 144 yards and a touchdown, and Lamb added five receptions for 66 yards and a score in the 33–16 win at Las Vegas.
- The NFL fined Pickens $26,085 for unsportsmanlike conduct for jumping on the goal post after his touchdown, the week’s largest reported fine for a celebration.
- With free agency approaching, reports say Dallas could consider the franchise tag for Pickens; he said he would love to return but declined to commit on signing a tag.
