The Dallas Cowboys are getting the best of wide receiver George Pickens this season. However, many felt the move to trade for the former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver would bite Jerry Jones.

Pickens was known as a "hot head" during his time with the Steelers. Sometimes, his emotions could get the best of him. But that hasn't been the case in his start with the Cowboys.

In his first five games with the Cowboys, Pickens has five touchdown receptions.

“With me, I’ve kind of figured out I’m so good, that’s the only way you can try and take me out of the game," Pickens told Joseph Hoyt of the Dallas Morning News.

Those are the words of a confident receiver, and Pickens has every reason to be confident with his hot start to the season.

The Cowboys needed someone to step up in the place of CeeDee Lamb, who is currently dealing with an injury.

Pickens has continued to prove that the Cowboys don't have one top option. When Lamb returns, the number one offense in the NFL can get even better. That's a scary thought for the rest of the league.
