Twitter: Gallup running routes and working with Dak after practice

[Doomsday101]

Dont get me wrong man, this guy has been one of my pet cats all off season. I luv his hands and speed.I just need to see more first. I like his ^ side.

I just need him to keep progressing.

I have no doubt he can physically heal in 6 to 9 months. My comment was whether he is mentally ready to play football on the healed knee. It looked to me in the single clip he might lack a little confidence in the healing process, which is normal. I won't say he was limping exactly, but it looked like he was thinking about the knee as he walked.

I think that you are right. I had ACL surgery and I swear that 90% of it was mental. It has been 7 years now and I still kinda "baby" that knee at times, when I am doing something physical.

Great news!!!

The best news thus far heading into the new season. "For the first time in over seven months, Michael Gallup was running routes and catching balls from quarterback Dak Prescott. That was just one development Thursday as the Cowboys practiced for the second day in a row as guests of the Los Angeles Chargers.

One man looking to benefit from Gallup’s absence made the play of the day on the very last snap of scrimmage, an offensive lineman took a rather offensive shot to the face during the day’s work, the kickers took turns on the skinny goalpost, and the league’s interception leader gave a rave review of one of this year’s rookie DBs."

Imagine? All that crying for nothing!!

 

[Tangle_Foot]

Good news. Godspeed on a successful recovery

 

[CowboyRoy]

lol, could be why Gallup is cutting his leave short.
Didn't expect Gallup to be running routes this soon to be honest.

Not sure why not? Cowboys have been saying all offseason he wont miss much time.

Seconded.

I’ve been hearing all along that he’d be here pretty early (like after about 2-4 games).

Agreed. Its the cry babies that keep trying to lengthen the time so they can justify their own pity party.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

He was very gingerly running...it takes the long established time to go from where he is.now to believing in the knee

 

[Croomraider]

Has anyone told Gallup that Houston took his job yet?

Maybe we should watch Houston play a real game first?

In the history of undrafted freeagent wideouts, you have Drew Pearson, Wes Welker and only a few other relevant ones. So you're saying he's gonna be Drew Pearson? lol

I'll go ahead and double down and say Dennis Houston is on jockstrap laundry duty by week 8!

I knew the time frame, but didnt expect Gallup to be running routes this early is all, there is no agenda.

I'm not expecting Gallup back until the 1st week of November. He's already said he's not playing week 1. He's probably gonna have to practice fully for at least two weeks before they make him active again. I'm thinking he's probably not gonna practice full until sometime in Mid October. The training staff won't rush him back.

 

[Vinnie2u]

IR him until the bye week Week 8.. Use the roster spot to keep a extra WR..

He doesn't know his limits yet, so it's normal to be vigilant.

we call that a ghost limp,

your body all this time was limping but after you heal, the limp stays with you for a while. Like a spasm..it goes away. Trust me 5 knee surgeries..

I think he is still some time away. It looked to me like he is not completely confident in the knee just yet.

Ya, he does not look strong with his running.
