Cowboys free agent Stephon Gilmore is deliberating over his next team for the upcoming season. Gilmore cited family commitments and the need to choose the right opportunity before committing to a team. Given his age (33) and previous significant contributions, it’s understandable that he’s taking his time, following the precedent set by other veteran players. This patience may explain why Gilmore remains unsigned, as he waits for the ideal situation to emerge.

This scenario mirrors past instances, such as when T.Y. Hilton waited until the regular season to assess potential playoff contenders before signing with Dallas. As of now, it seems unlikely that Gilmore will start the season with the Cowboys, leaving the cornerback position to Trevon Diggs, DaRon Bland, and Jourdan Lewis. However, emerging talents like Caelen Carson, Eric Scott, Nahshon Wright, and other undrafted free agent cornerbacks will vie for opportunities behind the established starters.
