The Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for a crucial Week 14 matchup against the Detroit Lions on Thursday night, and they've received a significant boost with the news that star wide receiver George Pickens is set to return from injury. After missing time due to calf and knee issues, Pickens has been participating fully in practice and is now expected to suit up against the Lions. The Cowboys, who have been on a hot streak with three consecutive wins, including victories over last year's Super Bowl teams, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs, are looking to make a statement in this game. A win would make playoff talks more realistic, and the team is counting on Pickens to make a difference. According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, the Cowboys are expecting Pickens to play, while cornerbacks Trevon Diggs and left tackle Tyler Guyton are ruled out due to injury. The team's depth chart indicates that CeeDee Lamb will continue to play a key role, but with Pickens back in the lineup, the offense is expected to become even more formidable.
