The Dallas Cowboys stunned the Philadelphia Eagles, 24-21, in a Week 12 thriller. Dallas was down 21-0 at the start of the second quarter, but the Cowboys scored 24 unanswered points, and Brandon Aubrey hit the game-winning 42-yard field goal as time expired.

Dak Prescott went 23-of-36 for 354 yards with two touchdowns and an interception while adding another score on the ground.

Wide receiver George Pickens led the way again with nine receptions for 146 yards and a touchdown on nine targets.

Pickens, who began his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, was acquired via a trade in the offseason and has emerged as a steady option in the Dallas offense.

This is the second straight 100-yard game for Pickens, and his fourth of the season.

After the win, owner Jerry Jones was asked again about Pickens’ future, and he made it clear that he wants him to stay.

“Of course, of course,” Jones said, via Tommy Yarrish of Cowboys.com. “We are proud to have him and I don’t even want to play games with it. We’d love to have him on the team.”

Jones also said he is “proud” of Pickens and called him an “integral part.”

“I’m proud he’s having the season he’s having. It exceeds anything we could have hoped for,” Jones added.

“George has been such an integral part of our story, and he has his story, to a degree that’s our story,” Jones said. “I’m so proud for him. Everybody on this team is, and he certainly has absolutely been the difference as we’ve played over the last two weeks.

The Cowboys sent a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick in exchange for Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick.

Entering Week 12, he was the leading receiver in Dallas. CeeDee Lamb missed time earlier in the year with an injury, but the Pickens-Lamb duo has been a good one.

Pickens is in the final season of a four-year rookie deal, but Jones is hoping the WR can stay with the franchise for years to come.
