The Baltimore Ravens are actively exploring options to address their receiver position following the release of Odell Beckham Jr. One potential solution being considered is the addition of former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup, who is slated to visit Baltimore on Thursday.
Gallup’s availability stems from his recent release by the Cowboys, after the team granted him permission to explore trade opportunities. Financial considerations played a significant role in Dallas’ decision, as Gallup carried a notable cap hit for the upcoming season.
During his six-year tenure with the Cowboys, Gallup showcased his talent, amassing impressive statistics including 266 receptions for 3,744 yards and 21 touchdowns. While his production dipped slightly last season, Gallup remains a proven playmaker, having recorded notable performances, particularly during his standout 2019 season.
With several top-tier receivers already off the free-agent market, Gallup emerges as one of the premier options available, alongside notable names like Beckham and Tyler Boyd.
While Gallup seeks a new team, the Cowboys have yet to pursue a replacement through free agency. As of now, Dallas’ projected receiving corps for the upcoming season features CeeDee Lamb as the primary wideout, supported by experienced veteran Brandin Cooks and promising talent Jalen Tolbert.
The potential addition of Gallup to the Ravens’ roster could offer a significant boost to their offensive capabilities, providing quarterback Lamar Jackson with an additional weapon in the passing game. As Baltimore continues to explore options to bolster their receiving corps, Gallup’s visit signifies a proactive approach to addressing an important position of need.
