The Minnesota Vikings have made a significant move to strengthen their cornerback position by signing Stephon Gilmore to a one-year contract. This marks the fifth cornerback addition for the team since the start of training camp, with Gilmore being the most accomplished among them.
According to his agent, Gilmore's contract includes $7 million guaranteed and could reach up to $10 million. The former AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year and five-time Pro Bowl selection brings a wealth of experience to the Vikings, having played for four other teams in the past five seasons.
