Re-signs

Signs Contract0 Comments

McCourty re-signs with the Patriots. The deal is for five years and $47.5 million, with $28.5 million guaranteed.

I’m blessed to say we had other teams that were interested, but I said all along that I knew in my heart that I wanted to be back in New England. But I also knew the business side of football, and I had to do what I had to do. I’m back, but I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t possibilities over the last two days that I was going to be somewhere else. I’m happy it all worked out.
