Stephon Gilmore is retiring as a New England Patriot! After a career that included two All-Pro selections, a Defensive Player of the Year award and a Super Bowl championship, Gilmore is choosing to close his career with the team he helped bring another Lombardi Trophy to New England. On today’s Patriots HIT, Zac Blackerby reflects on Gilmore’s four seasons with the Patriots, including his crucial interception against the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII. Then, attention turns to Sunday’s matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gabe Jacas and Dre’Mont Jones have two important jobs against Aaron Rodgers: generate pressure and keep him contained in the pocket. Rodgers can extend plays and create problems for a defense when he gets outside the pocket. Can New England’s edge rushers get after him without opening escape lanes? Zach breaks down why that balance could be critical against Pittsburgh. What’s your favorite Stephon Gilmore Patriots moment, and how much pressure can New England generate against Rodgers?
