Insider drops update on Cowboys' contract plans for George Pickens

In this story:
After dealing with the Micah Parsons drama headed into Week 1, the Dallas Cowboys have some more contract decisions to make this offseason.
At the top of the priority list is wide receiver George Pickens.
Pickens is on the final year of his four-year rookie deal from his time with the Pittsburgh Steelers and has proven himself more than deserving of a new contract, but whether that comes in Dallas or elsewhere is up to the Cowboys.
