Stephon Gilmore is scheduled to hit unrestricted free agency a year from now and has proven his worth. The Buffalo Bills like him, and man-to-man corners are a necessity for Rex Ryan’s defense. The two sides want to get a deal done, but it seems money is the only sticking point.
Stephon Gilmore said he absolutely wants to stay in Buffalo and it is only financial matters being considered with/holding up contract.
