Gilmore Comments on Possible Return to Buffalo

Thursday, Jan. 26

Gilmore said Thursday he has spoken with new Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott as well as defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier.

"I talked to [McDermott] on the phone, then I got a call from Leslie Frazier, those guys called me," Gilmore said, per NFL.com's Conor Orr. "It's all up to them. They seem like they're going to turn it around out there but, like I said, I don't know what's going to happen. They got a decision to make."

Gilmore discussed his attitude toward selecting his eventual destination: "No hopes. Whatever happens is going to happen. But I want to be wanted wherever I go. I put it in God's hands. If it's somewhere else, it is what it is."

The 26-year-old finished with a career-high five interceptions this season, which tied for fifth in the NFL.

While Gilmore is hitting free agency after a strong 2016 campaign, the market is flush with talented cornerbacks. Logan Ryan, Trumaine Johnson, Morris Claiborne and A.J. Bouye will all be highly sought after.

Gilmore's five interceptions may not have been the best reflection of his performance, either. Pro Football Focus graded him as the 61st-best corner in the league and gave him a 72.4 rating in pass coverage, which ranked 63rd.

Gilmore's high interception total and Pro Bowl honor will ensure he's in demand this offseason, but it will be interesting to see how high his cost is relative to the rest of the market.
