Patriots Release Longtime Center David Andrews After 10 Seasons

The two-time Super Bowl champion and team captain reflects on his departure as the Patriots rebuild their roster with younger talent.

David Andrews, a cornerstone of the Patriots' offensive line for a decade, was released by the team as part of its roster overhaul.
The 32-year-old center expressed surprise at the decision but acknowledged the team's focus on rebuilding with younger players.
Andrews played only four games in the 2024 season due to a shoulder injury that required season-ending surgery.
The Patriots have signed Garrett Bradbury, formerly of the Vikings, to replace Andrews and bolster their offensive line.
While weighing options for his NFL future, Andrews expressed gratitude for his time with the Patriots and their passionate fan base.
