And it quickly went viral with more than one million views.
The Athletic’s Dallas Cowboys reporter Jon Machota shared an eight-second clip on his account.
It left fans with differing opinions on what happened on the field.
“Dak to George Pickens TD,” Machota wrote.
The clip showed Prescott throwing towards Pickens in the back corner of the end zone.
Newly-acquired wide receiver Pickens was in double coverage.
It apparently happened during joint practice with the Los Angeles Rams.
The Dallas Cowboys star was going against No.4 Ahkello Witherspoon and No. 37 Quentin Lake.
Pickens seemed to high-point the ball and come down with the touchdown.
But as the players got back up, it was No.37 holding the football and not No.3.

“What a catch, kept his feet in and everything,” one fan said.
Another posted, “Man Pickens about to go for 1,400 yards 10 TDs.”
While a third called him a “contested catch master.”
Other fans weren’t quite so convinced the Cowboys receiver caught the ball.
There were even slo-mo videos and freeze frames posted by both sides of the argument to try and prove a point.
One sceptic commented, “That’s actually a pick. The receiver did not have possession going to the ground.”
“That’s not a td,” another simply said.
While a third posted, “Anyone who thinks this isnt a incomplete pass needs to not talk ball.
“WR never possessed the ball inbounds.
“Both players are out of bounds and hit the ground before either have clear possession.”
