Devin McCourty speaks glowingly of Patriots' new additions to secondary

The New England Patriots boasted one of the best secondaries in the NFL last season — posting a league-high 25 interceptions.

Bill Belichick kept core pieces of that unit with Devin McCourty, Patrick Chung, Stephon Gilmore, Jason McCourty, J.C. Jackson and Jonathan Jones. He also lost out on a couple players with the departures of Duron Harmon and Nate Ebner. To replace them, the team brought Adrian Phillips and Cody Davis in during free agency — also, drafting safety Kyle Dugger in the second round to bring youth along.

Devin McCourty, 32, spoke with Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald and discussed the incoming players.
