Veteran Patriots safety Devin McCourty plans on hanging it up.
McCourty announced the news on Friday, following a successful 13-season career that includes three Super Bowl championships.
The 35-year-old, who said he may make the jump to sports media, said he talked with Patriots brass about the decision and thinks it “is the best decision for me.”
“I’m officially retiring from the NFL. It has been a great ride,” McCourty said on Instagram. “I think it’s always tough to come to the end.”
McCourty entered the NFL in 2010 out of Rutgers before playing 205 regular-season games for New England, which is the fifth most in franchise history.
