From the article

For the second straight week, George Pickens was largely an afterthought. Ten targets over the last two weeks simply isn't enough for a player with his skill set.

Pickens underutilized with just ten targets over two weeks despite vertical upside.

George Pickens has seen dwindling snap count and target volume over the last two weeks, receiving only ten targets combined. Against Arizona, Pickens caught two passes for 48 yards including a 37-yard reception and appeared to have a 59-yard touchdown negated by a holding penalty, yet Dallas never made a concerted effort to increase his involvement despite proving he could challenge vertically.
