George Pickens Sports No. 3 Cowboys Jersey at OTAs in Photo After Steelers Trade

Doric SamJun 3, 2025

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens may have settled on a new number after being acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Pickens was seen wearing the No. 3 jersey at Tuesday's OTAs. He initially wore No. 13 in Cowboys practices last month.

Before Pickens debuted the No. 3 on the practice field, it appeared that his new jersey leaked on the NFL Shop website:

Of note, defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. is currently listed as No. 3 on the Cowboys' roster.

Pickens wore the No. 14 jersey during his three years with the Steelers, but that number belongs to fourth-year Cowboys safety Markquese Bell. He wore No. 1 during his college days at Georgia, so No. 3 represents a new beginning for him in his first year with a new franchise.

The 24-year-old raised some eyebrows earlier this week when he went back and forth with a fan on social media and claimed that he "forced" the Steelers to trade him in a now-deleted post. The Cowboys are certainly hoping that his immature ways that hurt him in Pittsburgh are behind him.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin once said of Pickens: "He's just got to grow up, man. … He's got a target on his back because he's George; he understands that. But he's got to grow up. He's got to grow up in a hurry."

The early returns have been promising, as Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones had high praise for Pickens last month.

"We think of him as more than a (No. 2 wide receiver). … Here you get a guy who has experience, who has had great success in the NFL, obviously a tremendous competitor," Jones said during a radio appearance. "He reminds a lot (of us) in our building of Dez Bryant, in terms of his competitiveness and what he brings to the field, his edge."

Now that he may have a new number, Pickens is ready to make an impact with the Cowboys as they chase a playoff spot in 2025.
