Who Should I Start? George Pickens or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Wednesday, November 4, 9:38 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (shoulder, hamstring) was at Wednesday's practice and was moving well in the portion open to the media, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Pickens went from playing 55 to 60 offensive snaps per game in the first six weeks of the season to 41 and 42 in the last two weeks due to shoulder and hamstring injuries that he has been playing through. The 25-year-old former second-rounder from Georgia was limited in practice all of last week because of those two ailments, and he could be limited again this week. However, barring a setback with one of those injuries, Pickens is expected to be active this Sunday in Indianapolis against the Colts in Week 9 in a very favorable matchup. He had just two catches on four targets for 48 yards in the overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8, but owner Jerry Jones publicly said that he thinks Pickens needs to get more involved. We could see Dallas grease the squeaky wheel and feed Pickens this weekend against the Colts. He should be locked into all starting fantasy football lineups in Week 9.
