DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - The Dallas Cowboys will place four players on the active/physically unable to perform list to begin training camp, including star wide receiver, Michael Gallup.
Gallup is coming off of a torn ACL he suffered during last season, and is still not expected to be ready to go at the start of the regular season.
Joining Gallup on the PUP list, are undrafted rookies Dontario Drummond, Aaron Hansford, and Quandre Mosely.
One player who was a surprise omission from the PUP list for the Cowboys, was linebacker Jabril Cox, who is also coming off of a torn ACL.
According to NFL rules, There’s no initial penalty for a player going on the PUP list, as they can be activated at any time during the preseason. However, once activated they cannot be returned to the PUP list.
If a player remains on the PUP list to begin the regular season they then become ineligible to practice or play in games for at least the first four weeks. A player on the PUP list counts against the 90-man roster during the preseason, but not the 53-man roster during the regular season.
Linebacker Damone Clark will also begin training camp on the Non-Football Injury List, where he is expected to remain until the start of the regular season.
