We have to remember that Michael Gallup was coming off of a terrible season-ending ACL injury in Week 17 of the 2021 season, but it's hard to understate just how bad his 2022 season was. Gallup played in 14 games for the Cowboys, but commanded just 74 total targets (less than 5.3 targets per game) despite the fact that CeeDee Lamb was really the only other wide receiver of note on the roster. He couldn't get open, wasn't making contested catches, and really wasn't even stretching the field effectively so that other pass catchers could make plays. It was a disastrous season for Gallup and he now almost certainly finds himself as the third option at wide receiver in this offense, behind Lamb and newly-acquired veteran Brandin Cooks.
Gallup was a 1,100-yard receiver in his second professional season, but he hasn't even reached 900 yards receiving in any of his past three seasons. Some of that is due to injury, yes, but past injuries like the ones Gallup has dealt with tend to have a way of resurfacing. The Dallas offense has been good enough to support three pass-catchers in recent seasons, but given the apparent shift in philosophy, it seems likely that Gallup will be more of a complimentary piece and not someone you'll want to be starting in normal redraft leagues.
