Stephon Gilmore could see more packages, snaps in Week 12 at Miami

The 31-year-old Gilmore has been limited since he’s joined the team in a midseason trade. Last year’s quad injury has taken him some time to recover from, after missing all of the offseason program and training camp with the Patriots before he was dealt here.

He’s played 83 snaps in four games with the Panthers, with the 37 snaps he played last week against Washington the most in any game. He’s made some key plays (such as his late-game interception against the Falcons when he was shadowing tight end Kyle Pitts), but they haven’t been able to unleash him for more than spot work yet.

Snow said he had confidence in their other corners, but is looking forward to seeing Gilmore playing at full capacity.

“Obviously, we’d love him on the field all the time,” Snow said. “But I trust the other guys playing; they’ve put in a lot of hard work. We trust our players that play.

“If he’s not in there, I feel good about the other guys being in there.”
