Stephon Gilmore typically isn’t one to run his mouth. For the most part, the New England Patriots cornerback lets his play do the talking.
He definitely broke character Wednesday morning, however.
Gilmore was a guest Wednesday on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s “Zolak & Bertrand” ahead of Sunday’s matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. At one point, Gilmore was asked about Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who recently fired direct — and incorrect — shots at Chiefs wideout Tyreek Hill.
Check out Gilmore’s response:
Stephon Gilmore was just on @ZoandBertrand and was asked about Jalen Ramsey’s comments about Tyreek Hill last week. Not his style. “A lot of guys that talk are mostly zone guys so they have a lot of energy to do that.” 👀

Something tells us Ramsey won’t take kindly to being labeled a “mostly zone guy.” But hey, if you can dish it out, you better be ready to take it.
As for Gilmore, he likely will be tasked with shutting down Hill on “Sunday Night Football.” Hill will give the Patriots corner all he can handle, but don’t be surprised if Gilmore shuts him down.
