Free agency won’t be the only available avenue the receiver-needy Carolina Panthers can drive down this spring.
Along with ESPN colleague and fellow league insider Dan Graziano, senior NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler just dropped a few nuggets ahead of this year’s legal tampering period. One of his hunches connects the Panthers and the Dallas Cowboys, who could be looking to unload wideout Michael Gallup.
Fowler wrote the following about some potential movement:
Trade names are percolating, and we already saw Jeudy get dealt to Cleveland on Saturday after Denver fielded calls from several interested teams, per sources. The Cowboys are exploring all options with receiver Michael Gallup, including a potential trade. The Panthers could be one to watch here. Teams have also told me that the Buccaneers are open to potentially parting with either of their starting corners, Carlton Davis III or Jamel Dean.
Gallup and the Cowboys agreed to five-year, $62.5 million extension in March of 2022, the spring after he tore his ACL in the team’s Week 17 outing of 2021. He’s played in 31 games since, where he’s totaled 842 yards and six scores off 73 catches.
