George Pickens Rips Chiefs Superfan Nick Wright After Week 13 Win

Most NFL fans know FS1‘s Nick Wright as a loud-and-proud Chiefs superfan. And, of course, he picked Kansas City to beat the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. However, while making his pick known in a segment of his show, he tossed a jab at George Pickens and his teammates, and the wideout didn’t forget it.

Wright was critical of the Cowboys ahead of Thursday’s game. He questioned Dak Prescott and Pickens’ ability to win against strong opponents. It was a fair criticism, given that Dallas was 1-3-1 against teams with winning records before the game against the Chiefs.

“The biggest question mark about him, fair or not, is big game performance. I don’t care how good CeeDee and George Pickens are,” Wright said on First Things First. Well, while parts of the analysis held up, the sharper comments definitely rattled the lion’s cage.

Pickens and Lamb both owned the show on Thanksgiving. Pickens had 6 catches for 88 yards, including a sweet hurdle and a two-point conversion reception. Lamb had 7 catches for 112 yards and a TD. 

And after the win, Pickens quoted and tweeted a fan edit of a game highlight, along with Wright’s criticism. Of course, he had a short message with it, too.

“Eat them words,” wrote Pickens.

Clearly, the Cowboys receiver heard the criticism from Wright and made sure to answer with a win over the Chiefs in his pocket.

This season, Pickens, who was traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers in the offseason, has been phenomenal. He has 1,142 receiving yards, which is good for second in the NFL. He also has 8 TDs, which ranks third in the league.

Underneath Pickens’ comment, fans reacted to the hilarious roast. “Lmfaooo cook em Pick,” one fan joked.

“No way this is my real goat tweeting?!” another wrote.

“Lmmffaaaoo expose that clown GP, not to mention putting mcduffie in hell all night,” a third fan commented.

Fans thought it was hilarious that Pickens kept the receipts. He had already been embraced by Cowboys fans as one of the most exciting players on the team, but this really pushed him over the top and cemented his status as the fans’ favorite player right now.

Pickens is still in the final year of his rookie contract and will be an unrestricted free agent next year. There were some rumors about the Cowboys possibly franchise-tagging him.

Pickens has already proven that he deserves a secure contract with big money. So, we’ll see how Jerry Jones decides to attack that process when the time comes.

For now, though, things are good for Pickens and Dallas. They have just beaten the two Super Bowl teams from last year in the span of five days. Their season feels revitalized, and a playoff run is on the table.

Right now, they need to focus on building this momentum as they move closer to the postseason.
