Galloway's first year earned him All-Rookie honors as he had 1,039 Receiving Yards. Following that with 987 Yards as a sophomore, Galloway again secured four-digits in Receiving Yards in 1997 and 1998, and he had ten or more Touchdowns in both of those years. Galloway was not a Pro Bowler, but his numbers put him in the conversation. Injuries held him to just eight games in 1999, but that would be his final year as a Cowboy.
The Dallas Cowboys were in the market for a top-tier Wide Receiver, and they gave Seattle two number one picks for him, one of which Seattle used to obtain Shaun Alexander. Galloway had 5,688 All-Purpose Yards for the Seahawks.
