McCourty recently underwent shoulder surgery and is currently rehabbing, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

McCourty appeared in all 17 regular-season games for New England and played every single defensive snap in all but four of those contests. The veteran safety is believed to have suffered the shoulder injury during a Week 14 game against the Cardinals, but he didn't miss a snap in Weeks 15-18. Per Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site, the 35-year-old hasn't made a decision on if he'll play next season.
