Aformer Dallas Cowboys starter could land with a Super Bowl contender.
As reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Wednesday, March 20, former Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup will visit the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. Gallup previously visited the Carolina Panthers, but left without a deal.
The 28-year-old receiver was released by the Cowboys on Friday, March 15, before he was due $4 million guaranteed. The move saves the Cowboys $9.5 million. Prior to his release, Dallas had granted Gallup permission to seek a trade.
Prior to his release, Gallup had spent his entire six-year career with the Cowboys after being selected in the third round of the 2018 NFL draft. Gallup quickly emerged as a key contributor within the offense, starting eight games during his rookie season.
It didn’t take long for him to become a focal part of the offense, posting 1,107 yards on 66 receptions with six touchdowns during his second season in 2019. He ranked second on the team in every major receiving category behind Amari Cooper
