After ‘a lot of suffering’ in his career, Jason McCourty said it’s ‘surreal’ to play in the Super Bowl with his brother

ATLANTA (AP) — Patriots defensive backs and twins Devin and Jason McCourty both have a lot on their minds as they prepare for Sunday’s Super Bowl matchup with the Rams.

Jason is thinking about the past and the magnets their mother, Phyllis Harrell, collected and used to post various keepsakes on the refrigerator of their childhood home in Nyack, New York.

Jason and Devin, the eldest twin by 27 minutes, were about 12 years old and playing in the Valley Cottage Pop Warner league together.

Everything went on the fridge, from school report cards to their football schedule.
