Raiders land ex-Cowboys weapon with $3 million deal
After six seasons and nearly 65 starts with the Dallas Cowboys, Michael Gallup has found a new place.
According to Adam Schefter, the veteran wide receiver has agreed to a one-year agreement with the Las
Vegas Raiders worth up to $3 million.
Gallup is coming off his worst season as a professional. He did not miss a game for the Cowboys in 2023,
although he had a career low in receiving yards (418) and receiving yards per game (24.6). It was
Gallup’s third consecutive season without over 450 yards.
Gallup’s yardage has gone down every season since his only 1,000-yard season in 2019. Gallup averaged
over 79 yards per game in 14 games that season. He also scored a career-high six touchdowns.
Overall, Gallup scored 21 touchdowns and averaged 43.5 yards per game with the Cowboys. He also had
an impressive Dallas finale during the wild card game last season. Gallup caught six passes for 103 yards
in a 48-32 Cowboys loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Dallas had high expectations for Gallup following his rookie contract and signed him to a five-year
extension worth $62.5 million before the 2022 season. He lasted only two seasons into that deal and is
now set to begin a new chapter of his NFL career with the Raiders.
