Patriots Likely To Re-Sign Devin McCourty, Matthew Slater
3 years agoThe New England Patriots are likely to re-sign free safety Devin McCourty and wide receiver Matthew Slater. Slater will have a minimal salary cap charge, while McCourty still figures to command a significant contract. While both players are nearing the end of their respective careers, McCourty and Slater are two of the greatest leaders and tone-setters in the history of the organization. Veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer is another player projected to stay in New England to help Mac Jones continue to develop. McCourty, 34, didn't show many signs of decline in 2021 with 60 tackles, three interceptions and 10 passes defensed. Slater is a core special teams player that will remain in New England.
