Coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday "we'd like to see another week's work" when asked about the chances of Gallup (calf) returning for Sunday's game against Denver, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

"We're really trusting the rehab process and timelines of what's ideal, what's a little early," McCarthy said. Gallup hasn't played since Week 1 due to a calf strain, and while the Cowboys haven't yet ruled him out for Week 9, it looks like the fourth-year wideout may be trending toward one more absence. If Gallup indeed misses Sunday's game against Denver, Cedrick Wilson will once again operate as the Cowboys' No. 3 wideout.
