Dallas Cowboys
On April 24, 2020, Gallimore was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the third round (82nd overall) of the 2020 NFL draft.[11] On April 30, he was selected in the eighth (71st overall) and final round of the 2020 CFL Draft by the Saskatchewan Roughriders; he was rated as the #1 Canadian draft prospect for 2020 prior to the NFL and CFL drafts.[12][13] Gallimore was declared inactive in Week 3 and Week 4, and recorded his first NFL tackle in a Week 5 win of 34-37 over the New York Giants. Even though he played just 20 snaps in the first four contests, he was named the starter at the three-technique defensive tackle position after Gerald McCoy and Trysten Hill were lost for the season with injuries. His best game came in Week 9 against the then-undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers, when he contributed to limit their offense to 46 rushing yards, while making 3 tackles (one for loss) and one quarterback hit. Gallimore appeared in 14 games with 9 starts, collecting 26 tackles (4 for loss), 0.5 sacks, 12 quarterback pressures and one pass defended.
On September 2, 2021, Gallimore was placed on injured reserve to start the season.[14] He was activated on December 11 for Week 14.[15]
