Cowboys News: Gallup to IR, Collins appeal hopes live, Zack to slide outside?

More COVID news as Randy Gregory is placed on the watchlist and Zack Martin comes off, plus analyzing the Week 1 performance in Tampa. | From @ToddBrock24f7

The Cowboys provided some clarity on Michael Gallup’s status and now know for certain how long (at the least) they’ll have to do without his pass-catching abilities. In other roster shufflings, an offensive starter comes off the COVID-19 watchlist just as a defensive starter gets put on. There’s a new kicker in town, and he’s heading to the practice squad. And the La’el Collins suspension saga seems to get weirder with each passing day. And his situation, of course, is causing consternation about who should fill his slot on the offensive line as the team pays a visit to one of the Bosa brothers.

Still plenty of postmortem to do on the Tampa loss, including five offensive plays that set the tone and raise the bar for the Dallas offense. moving forward. There are plusses and minuses to reflect on, an interesting changing of the guard taking place at linebacker, a personal best for Amari Cooper, and promising news about two players who sat out the opener. All that, plus it’s never too early to look at the NFC East standings. The News and Notes are coming your way.
