Dallas, Texas – After a disappointing 7-10 season, the Dallas Cowboys are entering the offseason with a strong focus on rebuilding and strengthening their roster. One of their most talked-about moves is acquiring wide receiver George Pickens from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Quarterback Dak Prescott, who has kept a low profile this offseason, finally spoke up – and his tone was filled with optimism.
Dak Prescott Breaks Silence: “I Feel Good”
Speaking for the first time at the team’s training facility, Prescott told CBS News Texas reporter Briana Aldridge, “I feel good.” Though brief, the statement signals Prescott’s readiness and confidence as the team prepares for a fresh start under new leadership.
The 2024 season was marred by inconsistency, coaching changes, and underperformance. With former head coach Mike McCarthy out, Brian Schottenheimer steps in for the 2025 season, aiming to bring a new vision and direction to the franchise.
George Pickens: A Key Addition to the Cowboys’ Offense
The arrival of George Pickens marks a significant upgrade to the Cowboys’ receiving corps. Prescott expressed his excitement: “He’s a guy who can catch the ball with ease. A really valuable addition.”
Pairing Pickens with CeeDee Lamb gives Dallas a dangerous one-two punch at wide receiver, providing depth, speed, and playmaking ability — all elements the Cowboys lacked consistently last season.
Cowboys Targeting More Key Pieces
The Cowboys’ front office isn’t done making moves. They’re currently eyeing three more impactful additions: Jonah Williams (Offensive Line), Patrick Queen (Linebacker), and Dameon Pierce (Running Back). Each of these potential acquisitions would help solidify key areas of the roster and balance out both sides of the ball.
In addition, Dallas has extended contracts for several cornerstone players including Micah Parsons, Tyler Smith, Jake Ferguson, and DaRon Bland. These moves ensure long-term stability and leadership across the team.
Outlook for the 2025 Season
With a revamped coaching staff, a rejuvenated Dak Prescott, and key offseason acquisitions like George Pickens, the Dallas Cowboys appear poised for a bounce-back season. Though challenges remain, the team’s strategic approach to this offseason signals a renewed determination to compete at the highest level.
