Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Neville Gallimore is set to be a free agent this upcoming offseason.
So what might his next contract look like, and will the Colts re-sign him?
Neville Gallimore contract projection
According to Spotrac, Gallimore is projected to earn a one-year deal in free agency worth $2.22 million. Gallimore will be entering his age 29 season.
In terms of player age, contract status, and statistical production, Levi Onwuzurike, Taven Bryan, and Jonah Williams were used by Spotrac as comparisons to determine what Gallimore’s deal could be.

Gallimore was signed last offseason to an inexpensive one-year deal to boost the defensive tackle depth.
With DeForest Buckner sidelined for much of the second half of the season, Gallimore — and others — took on a larger role. He finished the season recording 17 pressures, four sacks, and made 33 tackles in the run game, according to PFF.
If Gallimore’s contract is in the ballpark that Spotrac is projecting, we can’t rule out his return to the Colts. It’s a short-term deal that doesn’t break the bank.
However, GM Chris Ballard said that he wanted to get younger and faster on defense this offseason. Re-signing Gallimore doesn’t accomplish that. The Colts should begin planning ahead and looking for some longer-term answers at this position group.
Prediction: Colts do not re-sign Neville Gallimore.
