Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup has been earning early praise from his new head coach early in training camp, with Mike McCarthy referring to him as a "No. 1 receiver" on Tuesday. (Jon Machota on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

To be fair, McCarthy was praising all three of his wide receivers, but he specifically called out Gallup as "a No. 1 receiver in my view." Gallup broke out for 66 receptions on 113 targets for 1,107 yards and six touchdowns in 2019. And while he will have to share targets with Amari Cooper and rookie wideout CeeDee Lamb, McCarthy is known to lean more on the passing game than his predecessor Jason Garrett.
