Plus Gallup hurt his later and had complications afterward where they had to delay the surgery a few (several?) weeks.
 
From: NY Giants Team Doctor Discusses ACL Injury Treatment History :

Dr. Warren, who has been examining the injury risk of potential players for the New York Giants at the NFL Combine for three decades, recalls the tremendous change he’s seen. “Thirty years ago, we had to reject approximately 80-90% of the players who had an ACL injury either because it had been missed or reconstructed poorly. Today when we look at the numbers, we pass approximately 90% of players.”

Good find.
 
I don't know if others here noticed this, but last season there were several members of the media saying that Gallup's problem was that he "lacked confidence" in his knee. It could be that the media was quoting a trainer, not sure.

Anyway, it would have pissed me off big time if I were Gallup. If I had surgery and the knee didn't feel right, the last thing I'd want to hear is that it was all in my head ... as if it was a confidence problem and not a knee problem. It truly is adding insult to injury.

It was half ass routes. That's on him. He should probably take responsibility for that. He was bad last year.

Those routes he ran were often horrendous and showed that his route running skills are not complete. We also had him in a role that really is not him unless he can and is sent deeper.

If you can't run a route because your knee is hurting you shouldn't be on the field. I absolutely think it was mental.

It’s a lot mental and a little physical when you don’t have confidence in your knee closing in on a year after a surgery.

I think Gallup knows he’s done in Dallas if he doesn’t step up his game. That alone might cause him to press in games. I just hope it helps drive him to practice harder.
