George Pickens Erupts for 144 Yards, Touchdown in Monday Night Win

Tuesday, November 18, 12:17 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens continued his strong first season with the team in Monday night's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, catching nine of his 11 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown. Pickens and fellow star wideout CeeDee Lamb both sat out the first offensive series of the game due to a coach's decision, but it didn't prevent them from having big games, especially Pickens. The former Pittsburgh Steeler tied a season high in catches and had his third game with at least 130 yards receiving, which is now the most in the league among wide receivers after Monday night. While both Cowboys wideouts have been great, Pickens has outproduced Lamb since he returned in Week 7, with 383 receiving yards to Lamb's 335. He will continue to rank as a strong WR1 moving forward in Dallas' high-powered offense.

Matthew Golden Active for Week 11 Against Giants

Sunday, November 16, 11:40 AM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable following three consecutive limited practices. The 22-year-old is returning from a one-week absence. Through eight games this year, he has just 23 catches for 262 yards, and he's still looking for his first career touchdown. The first-round pick has not yet lived up to expectations, ranking as the overall WR72 in PPR leagues so far. He can be benched or dropped in most redraft leagues.
