Minnesota reportedly is willing to pay Gilmore a 'good amount of money.'
According to KSTP's Darren Wolfson, the Vikings want Gilmore to sign and they have put a "good amount of money" on the table. Gilmore visited the Vikings on Monday but left without a deal. Where he's at now in his free agency is unclear, but Wolfson says the Vikings want him to sign.
"It's on the player. I'm led to believe the Vikings are willing to compensate him, compensate him pretty darn well. The Vikings want him. They have made that clear. It's now on the player, it's now on Gilmore to say yes," Wolfson said Tuesday on"I don't know the exact monetary figure, but they are willing to pay him a good amount of money," Wolfson added."Had a great visit with him," O'Connell said.
The 33-year-old cornerback would play a big role in Minnesota, likely entering the starting lineup as the outside cornerback opposite of Shaq Griffin, which would then allow Byron Murphy Jr. to move into the slot corner role.
