Former NFL Receiver Shares More Details Of Why George Pickens Was Traded: ‘They Had Enough Of It’

The Pittsburgh Steelers dealt WR George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys last week, and Pickens’ attitude seemed to have played a factor in the decision. Former NFL WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh said on the Up On Game podcast that he knows players on the Steelers, and he was told Pickens was often late to the team bus or team plane.

“George Pickens had stepped over and crossed the line a bit too many times and I know people that play with the Steelers. He’d be late for the team plane that would be flying out to away games multiple times.
