Gallup (knee) is expected to be inactive for Monday's divisional matchup against the Giants, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gallup practiced in full leading up to Monday's contest, so for a moment his status appeared to be trending in the right direction, but the wideout now is expected to miss another game before presumably returning to action Week 4. However, an official word on Gallup's status may not come until roughly 90 minutes before Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. If Gallup is unavailable Monday, Noah Brown once again will be set for a key role on offense alongside CeeDee Lamb.

Gallup (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gallup is listed as questionable, but the expectation is the $62 million receiver will make his season debut after practicing all week. It couldn't come at a better time, as the Cowboys enter a surprisingly critical NFC East battle without star quarterback Dak Prescott. Backup signal caller Cooper Rush has leaned on Noah Brown heavily during his short stint under center, but it's entirely possible the Cowboys could work Gallup slowly into the mix, which would still afford plenty of opportunities for Brown to see his typical target share.

Gallup (knee) was a full practice participant Friday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Back-to-back full practices suggest Gallup is on track for his season debut Monday night against the Giants, though he may be listed as questionable on the final injury report Saturday and won't necessarily play typical starter's snaps if/when he suits up. Teammate CeeDee Lamb suggested Friday that he expects Gallup to play Monday night, according to Patrick Walker of the Cowboys' official site.

Gallup (knee) practiced fully Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Mike McCarthy relayed to Gehlken earlier Thursday that Gallup is closing in on making his season debut Monday at the Giants, assuming no setbacks. McCarthy also noted Gallup likely won't handle a full allotment of snaps, which is no shock considering he tore his left ACL in early January. When the Cowboys took the field Thursday, Gallup looked liked his old self, per Gehlken, and his subsequent activity level seems to back that up. If Gallup gets through Week 3 prep unscathed and suits up Monday, he may be behind fellow wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and Noah Brown in terms of snap and target share off the bat.

Gallup (knee) is expected to make his season debut Monday against the Giants if he avoids a setback in practice during the week, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dallas has made sure not to rush Gallup in his recovery from a January ACL tear, but the wide receiver has progressed to the point of full practice participation, signalling to the coaching staff that he's approaching readiness for game action. Coach Mike McCarthy elaborated that Gallup won't be given an every-down role out of the gate, per Gehlken, so Noah Brown could continue to function as the No. 2 wide receiver behind CeeDee Lamb for the majority of Monday's game.

Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday that Gallup (knee) is scheduled to "take a full slate of reps this week," Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gallup is in line to handle full practice activity for the first time since initially tearing the ACL in his left knee in January, a notable step in the right direction. As long as he can avoid any setbacks during the next few days, Gallup appears to have a fair shot at returning versus the Giants on Monday. Dallas' first official injury report of the week will arrive Thursday, at which point Gallup's practice status will be clarified.

Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that it's "certainly possible" Gallup (knee) could play Week 3 versus the Giants, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gallup has resumed practicing in a limited capacity and could have a real shot at making his season debut versus the Giants on Monday Night Football. The Cowboys will roll with Cooper Rush through at least Week 4, so it would be a notable boon for the passing game to get Gallup back in action. It's possible that Dallas wants to see Gallup resume practicing as a full participant before clearing him for a return to game action.

Coach Mike McCarthy confirmed Friday that Gallup (knee) won't play Sunday against the Bengals.

EDGE Analysis

Gallup has been able to practice in a limited fashion so far this season, but the Cowboys are proceeding deliberately with the wideout, who is bouncing back from an ACL tear that he sustained Jan. 2. Gallup thus will target a potential return to action Monday, Sept. 26 against the Giants, but for now Dallas' top available WR options are CeeDee Lamb, Noah Brown and Dennis Houston.

Gallup (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. He remains on track to sit out Sunday's game against the Bengals before potentially making his season debut Week 3 against the Giants, according to Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

EDGE Analysis

While Gallup's limited listing on the official practice report represented no change from Wednesday, the wideout took a meaningful step forward Thursday by practicing in pads for the first time since he tore the ACL in his left knee Jan. 2. The Cowboys plan to have Gallup steadily ramp up the intensity of his activity in their subsequent practices with the hope that he demonstrates enough progress to suit up in the team's Sept. 26 game in New York. If Gallup makes it back for that game, he would likely be catching passes from Cooper Rush, who is expected to serve as Dallas' starting quarterback through at least Week 4 while Dak Prescott is on the mend from thumb surgery.

Gallup (knee) is slated to practice in pads Thursday, but the wideout isn't scheduled to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Cowboys will likely wait until after Friday's practice to officially rule Gallup out for the Week 2 matchup, but all reports seemingly indicate that the wideout is making good progress in his recovery from the surgery he required in February to repair a torn ACL in his left knee. According to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, head coach Mike McCarthy said that Gallup participated in 7-on-7 drills for the first time since suffering the ACL tear Jan. 2, and the 26-year-old will continue to increase the intensity of his workouts in the Cowboys' subsequent practices. That ramp-up process will go into the next week, and if all goes well, Gallup should gain clearance to make his 2022 debut in a Monday night game Sept. 26 versus the Giants.
