He shouldn't play until he is fully healthy.
They won’t clear him unless he is healthy. He will have to be cleared by the medical staff. I just think they are trying to be creative when in reality he’s out until later in the season.

I thought he was cleared?

Did I not see the a couple days ago? Or was it something else?

He passed his physical, so he's cleared to practice/play.
But he will need time to get his feet under him so to speak. They will ramp him up from here. At this stage I'd say week 3.

Everyone is different I get it and if he is fully recovered ok, but IMO, and I'm speaking with some experience having torn both ACL's, they should have put him on the PUP and then started his ramp up. To me, this seems way to fast. I don't want to risk him getting re-injured.

how many Dr do we have here? lol People saying he should be out 5 to 6 weeks? Based on what? Dallas does have a medical staff who worked with Gallup, I think they may have a better clue than anyone here. As for Jerry he gets this information from the training staff.

ACL recovery, i'm not for rushing him back anyway. .

i'm glad they are at least taking some kinda safe, conservative approach.
He's had a really tough time with injuries last year,

Its just that we don't have that Cedrick Wilson luxury while Gallup is out.
and I still have concerns about Gallup return to form in just one year.

We are really gonna need the developmental types to emerge .. ala Jalen Tolbert .. Simi Fehoko..

I am prepared for this to be a weekly thing, where Jerry claims he's close but not quite there and then like in Week 6 or 7, Gallup finally plays.

Passed his physical. As I read it, it's not the same thing as being cleared to start all football activities.

Right.
Gallup said himself, next he needs to start running routes, or more complex routes, or something like that.
And that it is still up to the medical staff and trainers.

He did not mention if Dr. Jerry is on that staff. :laugh:

It's all good.

We have like 9 or 10 pro bowl type guys stashed on our practice squad.
