Gilbert is returning to the lineup at an optimal time, as Robert Spillane (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, opening up a starting inside linebacker job.

The 2019 sixth-round pick totaled only five tackles in seven games before being shut down with a back injury, but the offseason departures of Mark Barron and Tyler Matakevich create an opening on the depth chart.
