Who Should I Start? Michael Gallup or Keith Kirkwood

Monday, April 29, 8:51 PM

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, free-agent wide receiver Michael Gallup intends to ink a deal with the Raiders. The Cowboys released the wideout mid-March, saving the club nearly $10 million. But he's now heading to Las Vegas, where he will reportedly sign a one-year, $3 million contract. Gallup's best season was in 2019, with the 28-year-old amassing 1,107 yards and six touchdowns off 66 receptions. Since then, his production has declined. Gallup also tore his ACL late in 2021, which hindered his chances of turning things around. With that said, Gallup could have trouble getting consistently involved in Vegas, considering he'll presumably be behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers on the depth chart. The quarterback situation also won't help his fantasy potential. Yet, Gallup could have a few decent outings with the Raiders, and his stock will rise if Adams or Meyers goes down with an injury at some point during the 2024-25 campaign.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Keith Kirkwood has been waived by the organization on Saturday. This isn't surprising as Kirkwood's snaps have been taking a hit over the last month or so. He was a healthy scratch for each of the last two games. He will finish his 2023 Saints stint with one catch on four targets for four yards. Kirkwood will look to catch on elsewhere, but would likely be a depth option on any organization. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore him going forward.
