Cowboys WR George Pickens puts 49ers’ wives on notice with cheeky injury update

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens suggested he expects to play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, despite a persistent hamstring injury. His confident remark has drawn attention ahead of the meeting between two long-standing NFL rivals.

Asked about his availability, Pickens told a Dallas reporter: “Tell your wife or your girl to turn the TV on, and she’ll see me on the field.” The Cowboys are 4-5 and need their key players against the 7-1 49ers; Pickens did not name any of the San Francisco players’ wives or girlfriends specifically.
