1. Michael Gallup

After signing a five-year, $62.5 million contract this offseason, Gallup hasn’t produced on the field like the team probably had envisioned.

Gallup has just 16 catches for 170 yards and one touchdown in six games. On a per-game basis, he averages five targets, 2.6 catches, and 28.3 yards. The 26-year-old wideout has simply been non-existent for the Cowboys this season.

Of course, Gallup is coming off a torn ACL suffered late last season and as he gets more and more games under his belt, he’ll soon return to full strength. But, his recent production, or lack thereof, has likely been a big reason for the Cowboys’ interest in free agent Odell Beckham Jr.

Nonetheless, Gallup is still the WR2 in Dallas and can put up big numbers at any point this season. He has seen 13 targets over his last two games and seems to be more a part of the Cowboys’ game plan following his zero-catch game against the Lions.

Gallup’s length and vertical presence can be key for the Cowboys in this game and is a player that we should watch in Week 11. After all, this might be the game that gets him going.
