Cowboys WR Michael Gallup won’t play in season opener vs. Bucs

The Dallas Cowboys won’t have wide receiver Michael Gallup back from his knee injury for Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

When the Dallas Cowboys host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to kick off the 2022 NFL regular season, they’ll do so without one of their top offensive weapons.

Wide receiver Michael Gallup, who is coming off a season-ending knee injury, told the media Thursday that playing in Week 1 is “not a reasonable possibility,” per USA TODAY Sports’ Jori Epstein.

Gallup is expected to have an expanded role in the Cowboys’ offense following the departure of Amari Cooper, but it doesn’t look like he’ll be ready to face the Bucs to open up the season.
