A report Monday morning indicated the Patriots and cornerback Stephon Gilmore have made no recent progress on a contract extension.
So what happens now with Patriots’ veterans scheduled to report to training camp July 27?
Michael Giardi of NFL Media reports Gilmore’s “side is open to a multi-year extension but would also be willing to take a one-year jump in salary – with free agency looming next season – to make this work. There is still time to hammer out an agreement.” The phrase “to make this work” presumably means Gilmore won’t report without a bump in pay.
