Never Sleep On Stephon Gilmore🤙🇺🇸🏈

DENVER – The eighth time Russell Wilson threw Stephon Gilmore's way, the Colts cornerback undercut wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland's route and picked off the Denver Broncos quarterback in the end zone.
And the ninth time Wilson threw Gilmore's way, the Colts cornerback – again – undercut wide receiver Courtland Sutton's route and swatted the ball away on fourth-and-one, earning his team a 12-9 victory over the Broncos on Thursday Night Football.
"(Wilson) kept trying me," Gilmore told Amazon Prime's postgame show. "So I had to make him pay."
The Colts gritty win at Empower Field at Mile High does not happen without first a game-shifting and then a game-sealing play from the 2019 AP Defensive Player of the Year. Gilmore, whose deflection of a Patrick Mahomes pass in Week 3 led to safety Rodney Thomas Jr. snagging the game-sealing interception to down the Kansas City Chiefs, played every bit like the lockdown, playmaking corner the Colts believed he could be in Gus Bradley's defense when they signed him in April.
