Safety Devin McCourty is heading into his 11th season with the Patriots, so he spent a lot of time in the same locker room as Tom Brady since entering the NFL.
Brady won’t be in the locker room whenever McCourty and the rest of the Patriots are back at the team’s facility. McCourty told Chris Carlin of ESPN Radio 98.7 that being in the locker room will be the moment when he fully realizes that Brady and other former teammates have moved on to new teams this offseason.
While that moment remains off in an indefinite future, McCourty said the team’s remote offseason program has helped get the ball rolling on life without the six-time Super Bowl champ.
