New England Patriots legend Devin McCourty announced his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons.
McCourty announced the move via his personal Instagram. He was drafted by the Patriots with the 27th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft and stayed in New England for all 13 years of his career. A cornerstone of the Patriots’ defense during the height of their dynasty, McCourty is hanging his cleats up with three Super Bowl rings on his fingers. He was named to the Pro Bowl as a rookie and again in 2016. McCourty totaled 35 interceptions and 110 pass breakups across 205 career games, all of which were starts. Though not a strong contender for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, McCourty will certainly be inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame as a key member of one of the greatest runs in NFL history.
The ultimate leader.
