George Pickens Deletes Profane Instagram Broadside After Richard Sherman’s On-Air Critique

The Cowboys receiver answered with a profane Instagram Story that he later removed.

Overview

  • Richard Sherman said on Prime Video that George Pickens looked uninterested, gave half effort, and raised questions about paying him top receiver money.
  • Pickens finished with five catches for 37 yards in Dallas’ 44-30 loss to the Lions, the performance that prompted Sherman's remarks.
  • In a since-deleted Instagram Story, Pickens insulted Sherman and referenced his Legion of Boom years and time in San Francisco.
  • Pickens defended his play by calling football a team game and claimed Sherman ignored double teams and bracket coverages.
  • The post was scrubbed after circulating online, and no immediate formal response from Sherman or the Cowboys was reported.
