Michael Gallup: Retirement made official
The Raiders placed Michael Gallup on the reserve/retired list Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Gallup surprisingly retired as training camp kicked off for Las Vegas, after having signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the team during the offseason. The 28-year-old wideout played all six seasons of his NFL career in a Cowboys uniform, and injuries seemed to derail him after a promising 66-1,107-6 receiving line in Year 2. Former teammate Dak Prescott praised Gallup following his retirement, per Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site, saying "he was huge for my career."

Raiders' Michael Gallup: Set to retire
Michael Gallup is slated to retire, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.This is a surprising move, as Gallup agreed to a one-year, $3 million deal with the Las Vegas Raiders during the offseason and was projected fourth on the wide receiver depth chart. After a promising start to his career in Dallas, he failed to replicate those numbers in recent years and was looking for a fresh start in Las Vegas. His career now looks to be coming to an end prior to his seventh season.

Raiders' Michael Gallup: Lands in Las Vegas
Michael Gallup agreed to terms on a one-year, $3 million contract with the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.After a six-year stint in Dallas to start his career, Gallup will get a fresh start in Las Vegas. His second year with the Cowboys generated plenty of optimism, as he tallied 1,107 yards receiving to go along with six touchdowns. However, he has failed to replicate those types of numbers since. With Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers locked in as the Raiders' top pass catchers, Gallup will compete with the likes of Tre Tucker and DJ Turner, among others, for the No. 3 pass-catching role.

Michael Gallup: Visiting with Baltimore
Michael Gallup is scheduled to visit the Ravens on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Gallup, who turned 28 years old earlier this month, is coming off a 2023 season in which he recorded a 34-418-2 receiving line on 57 targets in 17 games with the Cowboys. If the 2018 third-round pick ends up signing with Baltimore, he would add needed depth to a wideout corps currently headed by Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor.

Michael Gallup: Cut loose by Cowboys
The Cowboys released Michael Gallup on Friday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.In what has been rumored to be Gallup's fate this offseason, Dallas has decided to move on from the 2018 third-round pick. Using a mechanism available to them, the Cowboys have designated the move as a post-June 1 cut, per Todd Archer of ESPN.com, which will save them $9.5 million in 2024 but add $8.7 million in dead cap next year. Gallup has one big season on his resume -- 1,107 receiving yards back in 2019 -- but he's failed to surpass 500 such yards in each of the past three seasons while playing 40 of 51 possible regular-season games.

Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Could be cut this offseason
Michael Gallup may be released this offseason, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic.The last time we saw Gallup in uniform he caught six passes for 103 yards in a wild-card loss to the Packers. It was his first 100-yard game since Nov. 2021, six weeks before he suffered a career-altering ACL tear. Gallup has three seasons remaining on the five-year, $57.5 million extension he signed a few months after suffering the injury, but none of the remaining money is guaranteed. The Dallas Cowboys can free up $9.5 million in 2024 cap space if Gallup is designated as a post-June 1 release, while cutting him without the designation would free up just $800,000 but keep him off the books for 2025. He'll probably need to accept a pay cut if he wants to stay in Dallas

Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Tops century mark against Green Bay
Michael Gallup caught all six of his targets for 103 yards in Sunday's 48-32 wild-card loss to the Packers.The 27-year-old wideout never topped 92 receiving yards during the regular season, but Gallup wound up being one of Dak Prescott's top targets in the second half after the Dallas Cowboys fell into a big hole early and had to air it out in a comeback attempt. On the campaign, Gallup didn't miss a game for the first time since 2020, but his 418 receiving yards in the regular season were a career low. He has three years and $32.5 million remaining on his current contract, but his declining role suggests he's a candidate to be cut or have his deal restructured in the offseason.

Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Minimal involvement in Week 16
Michael Gallup played 33 of the Dallas Cowboys' 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 22-20 loss to the Dolphins, recording two catches for four yards on two targets.After playing at least 54 percent of the Cowboys' snaps in each of the team's first six games, Gallup has seen a noticeable role reduction since Dallas' Week 7 bye. In the ensuing nine contests, Gallup's snap shares have hovered between 35 and 51 percent, and he hasn't drawn more than five targets in any of those games. Gallup remains a starting receiver for Dallas, but CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks are clearly ahead of him in the pecking order, and second-year player Jalen Tolbert may be encroaching on Gallup's standing as the third option on the depth chart.

Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Just one grab in Buffalo
Michael Gallup caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills.Dak Prescott posted his lowest passing yards total of the season and completed just 21 passes, his lowest total since the Dallas Cowboys' Week 7 bye, giving few opportunities for the team's depth receiving options to make any kind of impact. Gallup has caught one pass or less in three of the last four games, seeing only one target in each of those contests, but he could see higher volume Week 16 if the road game against the Dolphins turns into a barn burner.

Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Snags second TD of 2023
Michael Gallup caught three of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Eagles.The veteran wideout caught a one-yard slant from Dak Prescott right before halftime to give the Dallas Cowboys a 24-6 lead in an eventual 33-13 romp. The TD was Gallup's second of the season, while the three grabs and five targets tied his highs in seven games since the team's bye. CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks and Jake Ferguson remain Prescott's top options in the passing game, but there's been enough production to go around lately that Gallup is still capable of providing some fantasy value, although not consistently.
