CeeDee Lamb says Cowboys have two WR1s — but a Pickens meltdown could prove otherwise
George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb would make a terrifying WR duo — if they can co-exist. Lamb recently spoke highly of his new Cowboys teammate at the Kyler Murray Foundation Celebrity Softball Game on Saturday, and claimed there is zero debate about who the real WR1 is: Advertisement "Oh no, we both [WR1s]," Lamb said. "It ain't no A/B — none of that. It's ones — you look over there, you see one. You look over here, you see another one." This notion seems great on paper — but Steelers fans had a front-row seat to what unfolded when Pickens didn't get the ball enough. Ironically, so did Lamb — as last season, Pickens wore profanity-laced eye black that read "Always F------ Open" against the Cowboys in Week 5. He had just three receptions for 26 yards. Following the game, the former disgruntled receiver ripped on the face mask of then-Cowboys CB Jourdan Lewis, pulling him to the ground — another rash, immature decision that cost him over $10,000 in fines. He also played second fiddle to Steelers WR Calvin Austin III in the Week 12 loss to Cleveland — where Pickens's immature antics caused him to give up on a last-ditch Hail Mary play to instead focus on fighting Browns CB Greg Newsome II. Advertisement If the Cowboys can manage to feed Pickens the ball, things could work out just fine. But if he isn't treated like the true WR1 — chaos is inevitable.
