Michael Gallup Injury Update: When will he be returning for the Cowboys?
Dr. Jesse Morse provides an update on Michael Gallup’s recovery from a late-season ACL tear.
Gallup got surgery on his knee in early February and has been rehabbing and doing everything he can to get back ever since. ACL surgery and recovery can take up to 10 months, but every athlete is different.
Despite his injury, the Cowboys gave Gallup a five-year, $62.5 million extension. Since then, fans have been wondering just how long the receiver will be out. A week? A month? Half the season?
When asked about Gallup’s progress throughout the offseason the coaching staff and front office members continued to give the typical “he’s doing great” and “he will get there.” But no actual timeline was given. It wasn’t until late July that we heard some kind of legitimate update, and it came from Gallup himself.
So we want to know, will he be returning soon?
Dr. Morse breaks it down.
