Overview
- Both CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens sat the opening possession in what the team termed a coaching decision, which multiple outlets described as disciplinary.
- Pickens finished with nine catches for 144 yards and a 37-yard touchdown, including 75 yards after the catch against Las Vegas.
- Lamb added an 18-yard score as the pair combined for 210 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Monday night win.
- Acquired from Pittsburgh in the offseason, Pickens now has 58 receptions for 908 yards and seven touchdowns through 10 games, with a beat reporter noting this is the most receiving yards in a player’s first 10 games of a Cowboys tenure.
- Dallas improved to 4-5-1 and sits second in the NFC East and 10th in the NFC playoff picture, as Jones praised Pickens’ display as “poetic.”
