Reports: Cowboys Acquire CB Stephon Gilmore in Trade With Colts

The Colts reportedly are trading cornerback Stephon Gilmore to the Cowboys, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

In exchange for Gilmore, the Colts will receive a fifth-round compensatory pick, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero. Gilmore, a five-time Pro Bowler, now will prepare to play for his fifth NFL franchise.

Gilmore spent his first five seasons in the NFL with the Bills, earning a Pro Bowl selection in 2016 before signing with the Patriots in ’17. He spent four seasons in New England, where was named the league’s Defensive Player of the Year and led the league with six interceptions in ’19.

The 32-year-old also earned three Pro Bowl selections in New England and was a member of the Patriots squad that won Super Bowl LIII. Gilmore was traded to the Panthers during the 2021 season and earned his fifth Pro Bowl nod before signing with the Colts ahead of the ’22 season. He recorded two interceptions with the Colts last season.
