3 years agoThe New England Patriots re-signed defensive back Devin McCourty to a one-year deal worth $9 million on Sunday, according to a source. The veteran safety will return to New England for his 13th season. McCourty's salary cap charge will be lower than $9 million in 2022, which is important for a Patriots team with around $10 million in cap space. He has been a Patriots captain each of the last 11 seasons and has been one of the most durable players in the league in his 12 years with the team. McCourty's 24 playoff starts are tied for fourth most in NFL history behind Tom Brady (47), Jerry Rice (29) and Peyton Manning (27). Since entering the league as a first-round pick in 2010, the 34-year-old has played an NFL-high 11,446 snaps. McCourty ranks fourth in Patriots history in total takeaways with 37.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
