Stephon Gilmore, Patriots have not made progress on reaching new deal, per report

The New England Patriots are knocking on the door of the start of training camp and one of the bigger questions for the unofficial start to the 2021 season is whether or not star cornerback Stephon Gilmore will be present. The veteran held out of mandatory minicamp earlier this offseason as he continues to look for a contract that better suits the type of contributions he brings to New England's secondary. To this point, however, no such deal has been reached.
