Gallup, a third-round decide by the Cowboys in 2018, is coming off yet one more disappointing season in 2023 when he posted a career-low 418 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
The 28-year-old hasn’t been the identical participant he was earlier than tearing his ACL throughout the 2021 season. Nonetheless, it is sensible for Baltimore to do its homework on him.
The Ravens’ huge receiver room is kind of skinny after the lack of Devin Duvernay and the doubtless lack of Beckham Jr., who shared a goodbye to the workforce and followers on social media final weekend.
Extensive receivers Zay Flowers, Nelson Agholor and Rashod Bateman presently spotlight the room. Nonetheless, outdoors of Flowers, Baltimore’s 2023 first-round decide, there hasn’t been a ton of manufacturing.
Agholor (381) and Bateman (367) had beneath 400 receiving yards final season. That is why including a former 1,000-yard receiver like Gallup could possibly be a wise transfer, even when he is not that very same participant anymore.
Gallup would come at an inexpensive value, which is what the Ravens are on the lookout for with simply $13.8 million in wage cap house, per Over The Cap.
