Matthew Slater returning to the Patriots will not impact Devin McCourty’s decision whether to continue his own career

Following the New England Patriots’ 2022 season finale in Buffalo, there was speculation that long-time team captains Devin McCourty and Matthew Slater might be a package deal moving forward. The thought at the time was that if one would decide to continue his career, so would the other.

With Slater recently announcing his return for another season, the first shoe has already dropped. Now, all eyes are on McCourty.

However, the 35-year-old has not yet made a decision — something he reiterated on Monday while co-hosting NFL Network’s Good Morning Football.
