Stephon Gilmore left quite a mark on the Patriots during his four seasons in Foxborough.
Along with helping New England take home a sixth Super Bowl during the 2018 season, the skilled corner earned three Pro Bowl nods and was recognized as the league’s Defensive Player of the Year in 2019 after recording six interceptions and 20 pass deflections over 16 games.
Gilmore’s quiet demeanor and poised approach while locking down opposing pass-catchers has drawn some comparisons to current Patriots corner Christian Gonzalez — who impressed over four games during his rookie year in 2023 before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury.
