Devin McCourty expressed strong support for a Bill Belichick statue outside Gillette Stadium, emphasizing that considering Belichick's achievements, it would be 'ridiculous' not to build one. With six Super Bowl victories, nine conference titles, and second-most wins in NFL history, Belichick's credentials as a head coach are unmatched. Despite this, uncertainty remains regarding how the Patriots organization will honor his legacy compared to Tom Brady, especially following two consecutive losing seasons leading to Belichick's departure in January 2024.
"I'm obviously biased. I think from playing there, and I think playing on defense, and some of the thought processes that went into some game plans, and even overall the team success that the Patriots had, you can't take away."
"But what we were able to accomplish in my time there, and what those guys did before me ... I think it would be ridiculous that you wouldn't put a statue up of him when that [time] comes."
"No coach has one more Super Bowls in NFL history (six) than Belichick, as he also has the most conference titles (nine) and second-most wins (333) ever for a head coach."
"Should there be a Bill Belichick statue next to Tom Brady's out front of Gillette Stadium? Devin McCourty: 'Man, I sure hope so... That success that the Patriots had, you can't take away.'"
