George Pickens’ NFL career can be summarized in four moments: his video of being drafted; his first touchdown in the preseason; his Beckham-like catch last Thursday; and his target in the end zone that came after that and nearly resulted in an interception.
We don’t need to break down every play, but of course that Beckham-like circus catch drew headlines, and it has quickly become his calling card in his young career. It was affirmation for all of the people who had him as a favorite to win the Offensive Rookie of the Year Award in the preseason.
