https://www.dallascowboys.com/news/gallup-nearing-2022-debut-it-s-just-mental-now

The decision on whether or not to allow
Michael Gallup to make his 2022 debut
for the Dallas Cowboys in their Week 3
matchup with the New York Giants went
to the wire on Monday, but ultimately ...

.... it was the former 1,000-yard receiver
himself who opted to allow for another
week of practice before suiting back up
for the first time since suffering a torn
ACL in 2021.

Godwin, like Gallup, tore an ACL last sea-
son & was questionable leading into the
regular season opener against the Cow-
boys.

He'd go on to play and make an impact
initially before leaving with a hamstring
injury after playing in just 19 offensive
snaps, & he's not suited up since.

It could be argued that Godwin's hamstring
injury is what's often labeled an "overcom-
pensatory" injury, in that when one area of
the body isn't quite healthy the surrounding
muscle groups & support system (e.g., ten-
dons, ligaments) attempt to overcompensate ...

.... for the deficiency. This sports medicine
phenomenon can be wholly mental at times
when players are again healthy after a major
injury but alter how they'd normally run, reach,
stop, change direction, etc. out of fear of re-
injury.

As the saying goes: you often get injured when
you're trying to avoid re-injury. This is precisely
what Gallup is working to avoid.
