Cowboys announce key decision on WR Michael Gallup

Here's one to keep your eyes on.

Michael W.

A torn ACL brought an end to what was a trying season for Dallas Cowboys wideout Michael Gallup in terms of injury. The pending free-agent injured his calf in his team's opening season game against the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers and didn't return to action until Week 10; the ACL injury was suffered late in the season against the Arizona Cardinals. 

But with the Cowboys latest round of cuts yesterday, one key decision was made on Gallup's status, opening the door for a potential return to action prior to Week 4 of the upcoming 2022 NFL season. 

They declined to place him on their reserve/PUP list, which would have meant that he'd have been ineligible to return prior to Week 4. 

Gallup has spent the first four years of his NFL career with Dallas after they selected him in the 3rd round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Upon his arrival in Dallas, he signed a four year contract worth $3,523,980 that also included a handsome $889,980 signing bonus.
