"Players' noteworthy accomplishments can fade from memory during a diminished or injury-plagued season. After being the 2019 Defensive Player of the Year, Gilmore was celebrated as the NFL's ultimate CB1, with opponents reluctant to test him in the passing game. 

 

Since then, though, a series of nagging injuries impacted his performance and forced him to become a football vagabond. Gilmore appeared in just 11 games in New England in 2020, then missed the first portion of last season on the PUP list, ultimately landing with the Panthers via midseason trade. A free agent this offseason, Gilmore ended up with in Indianapolis, where he should find a home in a scheme that accentuates his strengths as an A+ cover corner. Gus Bradley's hybrid Cover 3 scheme enables Gilmore to play with his eyes on the quarterback while maintaining "top-down" position on the wideout. 

 

Given how well the Colts' scheme meshes with Gilmore's playing style, the All-Pro could rejoin the ranks of the elite at his position this season."  (Bucky Brooks nfl.com)

 

I think the Colts brass - and - Colts fans feel Gilmore may do exactly that!!
