Stephon Gilmore is on a $65 million contract with the Carolina Panthers! That is an astonishing amount of cash, if he can earn it all after getting traded from the New England Patriots. His deal got over in 2021 and the NFL cornerback is a free agent right now. He received a signing bonus of $18 million in 2016, which made him the highest-paid defensive player in Patriots’ history. Gilmore made $13 million across the past five years and had $40 million of it fully guaranteed.
At 31, he is eligible to receive a pay rise, given how many teams are after him. He has already switched from three teams and will have to consider staying with the Panthers. If he does that, he will get some incentive for loyalty but Carolina will have to meet his market demand. As per projections, he could make close to $15-17 million from his new contract.
