Neville Gallimore: facts drawn from the play-by-play.

6 seasons, 3 teams — and 2025 in Indy is the best year of his career.

After four seasons in Dallas where his single-year high was 15 tackles, Gallimore signed with the Rams in 2024 and then landed in Indianapolis in 2025. The 2025 line — 18 tackles, 3.5 sacks, 6 QB hits, 4 TFL — is a career high in every meaningful column for the 6-foot-2, 302-lb interior defender.

He's now logged 9.5 career sacks across 6 seasons — a respectable rotational-DL line for a former 3rd-round pick out of Oklahoma.

3.5 sacks in 2025 already beats his previous 4-year Dallas total combined.

Across four full seasons in Dallas (2020-2023) Gallimore produced exactly 3.5 total sacks — and he's already matched that number in 2025 alone with Indianapolis. The role change is doing real work: he's a starter in the Colts' interior rotation, not a depth piece anymore.

6 QB hits in 2025 — equal to his entire Cowboys output across 47 games.

Gallimore's pass-rush counting numbers were modest across his Dallas years — only 9 QB hits in 4 seasons. The 2025 jump to 6 QB hits in a single year with Indianapolis is the clearest sign that his pressure profile is finally translating to box-score production.

302-lb interior DL with 3.5+ sacks in 2025 — a small club inside the 30+ year-old veterans group.

Comparison

At 28 years old and 302 pounds, Gallimore is no longer a developmental project — he's a 6th-year vet getting career-best snaps for a Colts defense that's leaned on interior rotation. 3.5 sacks from an interior DL isn't an All-Pro number, but for a rotational 3-tech who started the year on a fringe roster spot, it's a reset of his career trajectory.

His Oklahoma pedigree (where he was projected as a Day-2 pick after a strong 2019) is finally producing in year six.

Career-high in tackles, sacks, QB hits, AND TFL — all in 2025.

It's rare for a 6th-year DL to reset career highs across the board — most players' production curves peak in years 3-4 and decline. Gallimore's late-career bump in Indianapolis is the kind of arc you see when scheme fit catches up to athletic profile.
