Drafted out of Rutgers in the sixth round of the 2009 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans, McCourty has gone on to become a Super Bowl champion, locker room leader for multiple teams and a stalwart in the community. The veteran defensive back first became a player rep with the Titans in 2013 before being elected to the Executive Committee in March 2022.

Off the field McCourty has teamed up with his twin brother, Jason (who also is a union leader and NFL defensive back) to launch their Tackle Sickle Cell campaign, which aims to educate the public and increase blood donors as well as raise money and awareness to fight against the disease. They hold an annual fundraiser for the Boston Medical Center, for which they were honored as NFLPA Community MVPs in 2018.
