Yet, there wasn\u2019t a single drop of bitterness, resentment or regret from one of the classiest players to ever wear the uniform. <\/p>\n<p>Not that he had a lot of reasons to be upset. After all, he played in four Super Bowls, winning three. <\/p>\n<p>Develin announced his retirement from the Patriots and the NFL on Monday, bringing an end to months of speculation and internal reflection following a serious neck injury that ended the careers of other Patriots like Sebastian Vollmer, Rob Ninkovich and Shane Vereen. <\/p>\n<p>Develin never put up gaudy statistics in his seven-year career in New England, totaling just 222 yards receiving and 26 yards rushing and five touchdowns on 15 carries. But his value to the Patriots locker room, practice field and clutch red zone situations was off the charts. Just ask his head coach. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo some people, James Develin may be \u2018unsung\u2019 in terms of publicity and fame, but to his coaches and teammates he is one of the most appreciated and respected players we have ever had. In football, there are a lot of tough, unselfish and dependable people who bring positive leadership on a daily basis, but the name James Develin represents those qualities at an elite level,\u201d Bill Belichick raved on Monday in a team release. <\/p>\n<p>in 2017, Develin became the first Patriots fullback since Sam Cunningham in 1978 to earn Pro Bowl honors. The 6-foot-3, 255-pounder played his entire college career at Brown as a defensive lineman before converting to offense, beginning his pro career in the Arena Football League and the United Football League. <\/p>\n<p>He entered the NFL with the Bengals practice squad on Nov. 30, 2010, where he spent the remainder of that season and all of 2011. In 2012, Develin went to training camp with Cincinnati and spent the majority of the season on the New England Patriots practice squad. He was signed to the Patriots 53-man roster on Sept. 6, 2013 and proceeded to play 83 regular-season games with 31 starts over seven seasons with New England. He also played in 14 postseason contests with six starts and posted three rushing attempts for 5 yards and five receptions for 29 yards and one touchdown. Develin spent the 2015 season on injured reserve and started two games in 2019 before suffering a season-ending injury.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"James Develin possible coach in future\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YNBckWFLJkE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cA tribute to the impact James had on our success, of the five seasons in which he appeared in every game, we won three championships.  Any team would be fortunate to have a James Devlin-\u2018type\u2019 on its roster but the reality is he is a rarity and we are very fortunate he was a Patriot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How did Develin take those words? <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was incredibly humbling,\u201d Develin said in a video chat Tuesday. \u201cThe reason I play this game is not only to provide for my family but for my teammates. I mean, they\u2019re my family away from own family. I have the highest respect for anyone that I\u2019ve ever shared a locker room with, so to see that kind of respect reflected yesterday, it was awesome. It was an emotional day seeing all that stuff and kind of being nostalgic all day and just returning the respects that were given to me. It\u2019s just awesome. It\u2019s really a cool feeling to see the appreciation and love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is all you need to know why Develin should be brought back to the coaching staff, that is if his family is agreeable to such a career transition. We\u2019ve seen it before. Jerod Mayo and Troy Brown have offered their expertise to players because they\u2019ve not only played, they played in the Patriots system for Belichick. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I\u2019d definitely consider it,\u201d Develin told me of any offer that might be coming to coach. \u201cI have this feeling like I need to give back to the game because it gave me so much. I\u2019ve been playing for 25 years and I know a lot about the game, I\u2019ve been through a lot of experiences within the game, so I think that there\u2019s a certain level of knowledge that I have that I can pass on to the next generation of players, wherever that may be. Yeah, it was funny to get that experience at the tail end of my career, to be able to kind of view it from not really being able to perform on the field, but being able to pass along information and have that person that I\u2019m passing it along to perform.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Just listening to Develin, you understand that he loves what football has provided him and his family and now he just wants to share that passion as a way of saying thanks. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a different type of feeling of pride. It wasn\u2019t like I was personally doing it, but I was helping someone else. Being able to help people in general is always something that I look onto fondly. Being able to do that and also contribute to the game of football, it\u2019s definitely something that I\u2019m considering. But, like I said, I just made this decision finalized yesterday, so I haven\u2019t been able to really pinpoint where I\u2019m going to go, what I\u2019m going to do next. But, it\u2019s something I\u2019d be open to, for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"James Develin Retirement Video Conference (Full)\" width=\"788\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZuqXK_jMgcA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>When Develin was injured in the Week 2 win at Miami, little did we know the 31-year-old fullback out of Brown University, by way of the Arena League and the Cincinnati Bengals would not play another snap in his career. While the Patriots certainly missed Rob Gronkowski this past season, there was no missing the message when Tom Brady suggested Develin\u2019s absence highlighted the fact that he was an irreplaceable player on the roster when considering everything he provided in the locker room and on the field. <\/p>\n<p>It was that kind of praise that not only earned him the respect of his teammates but a place on the team\u2019s All-Decade team of the 2010s released on Wednesday at the fullback position. While he was running \u201cunopposed,\u201d he certainly had to be regarded as one of the more important players on the field when the team needed to convert third-and-short or a key fourth down.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s awesome. That\u2019s awesome. I mean, I guess it\u2019s not too hard to win when you don\u2019t have any competition [at fullback], but it\u2019s an honor, man,\u201d Develin said. \u201cI know the level of play that it takes to perform for the Patriots and to get that kind of recognition, along with some of the guys that I\u2019m sure are on that list. It\u2019s an awesome thing to be able to show my kids down the road here once they can understand what it means.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Develin probably could\u2019ve been cleared to play in 2020 but very wisely he wasn\u2019t about to take a chance with his neck and spine, not with a beautiful wife and three healthy kids at home to raise. The guy obviously has his priorities straight. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy injury last year kind of exposed some things that posed a potentially risky situation continuing to play the game of football,\u201d Develin said. \u201cSo, that\u2019s really what led to my decision. I just knew that given all of the stuff that we kind of figured out, that it was in my and my family\u2019s best interest to no longer play the game. It was a tough decision, one that took a lot of emotions and a lot of time to kind of talk through with my wife and I, but I\u2019m at solace with the decision that it was made with my family\u2019s best interest in mind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really got the news months ago. I made the final decision (Monday) and kind of made it public, but I had really gone through this process kind of in my own mind with my wife and with my close friends and family quite some time ago. It was before all this coronavirus pandemic really hit, but this does shed a lot of light on really what\u2019s important. We\u2019re all at home with our families right now. When we really think about it, we have a million things going on in life and a million distractions between our phones and our jobs and just everyday life. But, really, when you boil it all down, the only thing we really need is just our family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the Patriots family, given the transition to a bold new era, could certainly use his familiar face and voice around the facility. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>James Develin called it a career this week at the age of only 31.
