George Pickens' snap share slashed to 56% due to Schottenheimer's run-blocking criticism.

WR George Pickens played just 56% of snaps with a 62% route share, down significantly after Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer publicly criticized his run-blocking effort. Pickens played 13 run snaps compared to 28 for Ryan Flournoy and 27 for CeeDee Lamb, and was on the field with Lamb for just 35 snaps (48.6%), the first time they've been under 50% together this season. Schottenheimer stated: "He needs to understand that he impacts us in the running game as well. He's got to do the same thing in the run game, picking up safeties and blocking corners, just like Javonte (Williams) does, picking up blitzes."
