Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or A.T. Perry

Wednesday, June 11, 10:02 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Michael Gallup (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring strain that has kept him off the field for the first two days of mandatory minicamp this week, a source told The Washington Post's Nicki Jhabvala. Gallup spent the first six years of his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys after they selected him in the third round (81st overall) in 2018 out of Colorado State before signing with the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency. The 29-year-old then abruptly retired and didn't play at all in 2024. He's making a comeback back in the NFC East, but Gallup is facing an uphill battle for playing time in D.C. behind Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel Sr., Noah Brown (undisclosed), K.J. Osborn and Luke McCaffrey. Gallup's hamstring injury isn't helping his cause in minicamp. He's off the fantasy radar for now.

Denver Broncos wide receiver A.T. Perry (undisclosed) will begin training camp on the physically unable to perform list, per Sports Illustrated's Zack Kelberman. While the nature of Perry's injury is unknown, head coach Sean Payton predicted the wideout might miss time to begin camp back in mid-June. Payton further noted that he may only be absent a week or so before rejoining the team, "depending on how the summer goes." The Wake Forest product flashed with a few splash plays in his rookie season with the Saints, but was waived following the year and garnered no stats in 2024. Despite his status as a developmental asset for Denver, his frame aligns with Payton's ideal pass-catcher profile. Perry will have quite a bit of work to do in a receiving room brimming with talent, but he is an interesting low-cost add in dynasty formats.
