The Dallas Cowboys vs Minnesota Vikings Sunday Night game was 17-17 at halftime. While Dak Prescott was at his usual best, home fans were concerned about George Pickens' status. The star WR seemed off throughout the two quarters. Some social media users even wondered if Pickens is injured.
George Pickens vs Vikings
In the first half, Pickens was nowhere to be seen. The 24-year-old had just one reception on three targets for 10 yards.
“My fate in 3 fantasy leagues rests with George Pickens tonight. And he currently has 0 points in the second quarter,” one fan posted on X, platform formerly known as Twitter, along with a sad face emoji.
“Is Pickens injured?” another one asked. “Why is Dak not passing to George Pickens?” a third fan tweeted.
Is George Pickens injured?
No. The WR did not sustain any injury. Cowboys QB Prescott simply did not go his way in the first half. The third and fourth quarters could be more Pickens-focused.
