Gallup and Lenoir are leading the charge
Michael Gallup has had a great training camp thus far and has easily been one of the stand out receivers in this unit. Lance Lenoir has surprised everyone by absolutely balling out and making insane catches all throughout the offseason. These two made the most of their time on the field and the same can be said for the majority of the Dallas Cowboys receiving corps. Gallup caught Prescott’s lone touchdown and showed a real connection with the team’s franchise quarterback.
He also showed just how great he is at catching the football in tough situations and with some more consistency can turn into one of the best receivers the Dallas Cowboys have had in a long time. Lenoir caught a touchdown from Cooper Rush and continued to prove that he has a place on the 53 man roster when it is all said and done. This was also another beautiful catch that not only showed awareness but also a knack for playmaking not everyone has.

If Gallup keeps up this level of play expect him to break into the starting lineup and Lenoir should not be far behind if he continues to make plays in preseason.
