Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger has a difficult matchup Sunday against Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots defense on the road at Gillette Stadium.
So he's taking a smart approach to his preparation: Seeking the advice of a player who thrived in Belichick's defense.
Colts cornerback Stephon Gilmore has been working with Ehlinger to get him ready for all of the coverages, blitzes and other schemes that the Patriots defense might throw at him Sunday afternoon.
Gilmore played four-plus seasons with the Patriots from 2017 through the middle of the 2021 campaign when he was traded to the Carolina Panthers.
