Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens is battling two injuries, but seems to be trending towards playing on Thanksgiving Day. The team announced that Pickens returned to practice on Tuesday after missing Monday’s practice due to knee and calf injuries. He was a limited participant in practice, and the Cowboys will announce his game status on Wednesday.
George Pickens was seen arriving late to the field during the media’s viewing period of practice on Tuesday. The former Georgia Bulldogs standout was getting treatment for his injuries and spent some time warming up off to the side before participating in a drill.
