BOSTON — Nicknamed “red coat” by his teammates, Devin McCourty’s destiny as a future Patriots Hall of Famer has long been clear.
After making an announcement Friday afternoon, the clock is officially ticking on his induction day.
In a video posted to social media, McCourty shared he is retiring from the NFL. McCourty ends his playing career after 13 seasons, three Super Bowl championships and two Pro Bowl nods. The 35-year-old grew into a franchise great in New England, where he was named to the franchise’s 2010s All-Decade team.
