VT. Cowboys WR George Pickens was suspended for the next three games by club president Jerry Jones for violating curfew when he was caught at a casino.

The Dallas Cowboys seemed to be entering the most stable period of the season, but suddenly a big shock broke out in the middle of the week: wide receiver George Pickens was suspended for three consecutive games, by the direct decision of team president Jerry Jones, after Pickens was caught… appearing at a casino at midnight, seriously violating the team’s curfew.

According to many inside sources, the incident happened just a few hours after an important tactical practice session to prepare for the weekend game. Pickens is said to have left the team hotel and gone to a casino in Dallas with a few friends. Security cameras and fans quickly recorded images of him playing blackjack in a hooded hoodie – but not before the eyes of the Cowboys security team, which Jerry Jones described as “never sleeping”.

When the information was leaked, an emergency meeting was held that night. A source said Jerry Jones was “angry as ever” and demanded immediate handling to avoid affecting the team’s reputation.

“Nobody puts themselves before the team,” Jones said at the meeting. “The slightest indiscipline destroys the locker room.”

George Pickens, who was expected to be the Cowboys’ next offensive tackle, was called in to explain. Witnesses described the meeting as “tense.” At the end of the meeting, the punishment was announced: a three-game suspension, a ban from all team activities, and an “enhanced internal discipline” program.

The news exploded in the NFL community.

Commentator Stephen A. Smith said on television:
“Pickens has talent, but the Cowboys are not going to give in. Jerry Jones sent a message: discipline is number one.”

Dallas fans were divided. One group felt Jones was too tough, given the fact that many players had violated similar rules. The other side agrees that the Cowboys are in a crucial phase, and any irresponsible behavior must be eliminated immediately.

But one thing is undeniable:
This punishment will change the Cowboys’ offensive strategy for the next three games. George Pickens is a player with the ability to make plays, and his sudden absence will force the coaching staff to rotate the lineup in a passive manner.

Meanwhile, Pickens has remained silent, posting only a short message on social media:
“I will be back. Stronger.”

But the question remains:
Is this just a temporary setback, or a sign of trouble that the Cowboys must prepare for?

The entire NFL is watching George Pickens’s next move – and Jerry Jones’s unyielding determination.
