On Saturday, the team returns after a 24-hour break, before Sunday&#8217;s practice allows players to ramp up the competition ahead of the 2025 NFL season in full pads for the first time this offseason.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_35to6dd5s\">One player who has been making the most of training camp through the team&#8217;s first three practices is star wide receiver George Pickens, who has only been with the team for a few months since being acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers in a post-NFL draft trade.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_t2ukd4eyx\">Pickens has shown flashes of brilliance early in camp, but he still needs to work on his timing with Dak Prescott, who is making sure he helps Pickens get comfortable in the offense.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_5gjfopwwe\"><strong>MORE:<\/strong> 3 early Cowboys training camp standouts, including former trade bust<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_hq00p87lm\">Prescott recently spoke about Pickens&#8217; transition into the Cowboys offense and said he is doing his best to make sure Prescott is &#8220;continuing to master&#8221; the scheme which he believes will be easier for Pickens as an &#8220;elite player.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-mm-id=\"_e46aglajs\">\n<div>\n<figure data-id=\"_e46aglajs\" data-mm-type=\"image\"><canvas><\/canvas><picture><source \/><source \/><source \/><img title=\"Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens participates in drills during training camp at Saint Vincent College. \" alt=\"George Pickens 'continuing to master' Cowboys offense with Dak Prescott's help\" \/><\/picture><\/figure>\n<p>Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens participates in drills during training camp at Saint Vincent College. \/ Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_cfg5p7j90\">\u201cI think that\u2019s all to come,\u201d Prescott said, via Jon Machota of The Athletic. \u201cI don\u2019t think that\u2019s necessarily something we\u2019ve got to grow into. I think more so than anything, it was just the first red zone day. I think if we doubled the number of reps we had in there today, you would have seen one or two (examples of Pickens high-pointing the football). I just think that\u2019s going to come with who he is, the matchups that we\u2019re going to get. Hit him on a great out-route, so if they want to start sitting on that, you\u2019re going to see the jump balls.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_r8fvxqg4m\">\u201cFor him, it\u2019s just about continuing to master the offense, the routes and the adjustments on certain routes. When he does that, the rest of it is going to come. That\u2019s important for all of us. The guy hasn\u2019t been here too long. It\u2019s just about making sure that he feels comfortable in the system and knowing what he has. Whether it\u2019s him catching the ball or that connection, when you\u2019re an elite player like him and you create separation, that makes that whole deal easier.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_dnziqtznr\"><strong>MORE: <\/strong>Dak Prescott hypes former Cowboys first-rounder entering crucial year<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_joodbs10f\">Pickens has already built a strong relationship with fellow star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. The duo forms one of the best in the league and it is going to be exciting to see how the two continue to grow and build off of each other.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_s38qliak7\">As long as Pickens can continue working on his rapport and timing with Prescott, the Cowboys offense is set up for great success this season. At the very least, they are going to be a lot of fun to watch.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" data-mm-id=\"_n5ivkg1ue\">\n<div>\n<figure data-id=\"_n5ivkg1ue\" data-mm-type=\"image\"><canvas><\/canvas><picture><source \/><source \/><source \/><img title=\"Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott enters the field during training camp at the River Ridge Fields. \" alt=\"George Pickens 'continuing to master' Cowboys offense with Dak Prescott's help\" \/><\/picture><\/figure>\n<p>Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott enters the field during training camp at the River Ridge Fields. \/ Kirby Lee-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xniw12doz\"><em><strong>\u2014 <\/strong><\/em>Enjoy free coverage of the Cowboys from Dallas Cowboys on SI <em><strong>\u2014<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_jxx95x17t\">Cowboys second-round pick proving to be steal of 2025 NFL draft \u2013 so far<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_2wt63h04b\">Cowboys-Broncos trade proposal would immediately fix growing concern in Dallas<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_5oulz21vm\">Cowboys&#8217;
