Over the weekend, Jason and Devin McCourty returned to their alma mater of Rutgers University as the honorary commencement speakers for the graduating class of 2019.

Jason McCourty graduated from Rutgers in 2009, and Devin a year later in 2010.

Both siblings became the first twins to play in and win a Super Bowl together this past February.

Their speech stressed the importance of an education and how despite successful careers in the NFL, those close to them felt earning degrees were a necessary backup plan.

Check out their full address courtesy of the Patriots YouTube account below.
