Should another homecoming between free agent Stephon Gilmore and the Carolina Panthers<\/a> be in the works?<\/p>\n

Bleacher Report analyst Kristopher Knox recently listed off the top remaining options for the NFL’s cornerback-back needy teams. Still sitting out on the open market is Gilmore, who Knox traces back to the Panthers:<\/p>\n

The Carolina Panthers should also be interested in bringing back Gilmore. The South Carolina product had a bit of a homecoming with the Panthers in 2021, his last Pro Bowl campaign.<\/p>\n

Gilmore could provide a valuable bit of veteran leadership to a Panthers defense that is still rebuilding under third-year coordinator Ejiro Evero.<\/p>\n

The Panthers acquired Gilmore<\/a> in a trade with the New England Patriots<\/a> during that 2021 campaign. While the Rock Hill, S.C. native and University of South Carolina Gamecock went on to appear in just eight games for the team, his short tenure was enough to earn him his fifth career Pro Bowl selection.<\/p>\n

Gilmore, who was also linked to Carolina<\/a> last offseason, has since gone on to play for the Indianapolis Colts<\/a> (2022), Dallas Cowboys<\/a> (2023) and Minnesota Vikings<\/a> (2024).<\/p>\n
