Steve Belichick designed ‘Safety Squadron’ shirts for his squad
The New England Patriots have been making a number of changes to their roster this offseason, but one position group has stayed virtually the same over the past couple of years.
Safeties Patrick Chung, Nate Ebner, Duron Harmon, Devin McCourty and Jordan Richards are set to don a Patriots uniform for the third straight season. The group has played a significant role in making the team’s defense a formidable unit, with starters Chung and McCourty combining for 174 tackles in 2016.
In the spirit of camaraderie, position coach Steve Belichick designed a T-shirt that features all five safeties and the group’s nickname “Safety Squadron.” Chung was seen sporting the shirt at Gillette Stadium on Thursday.
“I like it. It’s dope. You see Dev is the pilot. I got the guns, though,” he said after his workout, via The Boston Globe. “We own the ship, man. We do our thing.”
