On to Beacon Hill, as Bill Belichick would say.
Three members of the New England Patriots are headed to the Massachusetts State House to voice support for a bill that would overhaul how the state’s public schools are funded. Defensive captain and safety Devin McCourty, cornerback Jason McCourty, and safety Duron Harmon — all three of whom are members of the Players Coalition, an advocacy group of NFL players focused on social justice and racial equality — will testify before a joint committee of state senators and representatives about why they’re backing the Education PROMISE Act.
