George Pickens and the Dallas Cowboys secured their first win of the 2025 NFL season in Week 2, taking down the New York Giants with a 40-37 overtime win.

While kicker Brandon Aubrey may have stolen headlines with his game-tying 64-yard field goal and OT game-winner, Pickens had his best day as a member of the Cowboys. The former Pittsburgh Steelers star recorded five catches for 68 yards and his first touchdown with Dallas. Pickens has also been a lethal downfield threat for Dak Prescott, drawing numerous pass interferences on the Giants.

Now, Dallas will look to make it two straight wins when it faces the Chicago Bears on the road in Week 3. But before Pickens and the Cowboys made their way to the Windy City, the Georgia alum had an update to share.

On Friday, Pickens will be hosting a "Meet + Greet" at a new Dick's House of Sport in Dallas. The event will run from 6-7:30 p.m. CT with an opportunity to meet the wide receiver in person before he heads to Chicago. Pickens also noted that he has become a "DKS Partner."

"I’ll be @dickshouseofsport this Friday from 6–7:30pm," Pickens wrote on his Instagram Story. "Come through to meet me and check out the new store! #DKSPartner."

Pickens has been a strong addition for the Cowboys after being acquired in an offseason trade with the Steelers. Lining up alongside fellow wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, Dallas ranks sixth in the league in passing yards per game this season at 265.5.

The Cowboys will take on the Bears on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET (3:25 p.m. CT).
