Patriots releasing longtime star David Andrews in one of final connections to Super Bowl era
NY Post
One of the last ties to the Bill Belichick-Tom Brady dynasty era is leaving New England.
The Patriots on Thursday released longtime center and eight-time captain David Andrews, who won two Super Bowls with the team.
Andrews has been with the team since 2015 and was tied with long snapper Joe Cardona for the longest-tenured player title, according to ESPN.
“David Andrews’ career success is a shining example of what every NFL prospect should strive to achieve,” Patriots owner Robert Kraft said in a statement. “His leadership, work ethic, and dedication to the team earned him the respect and admiration of his coaches and teammates, who elected him as an eight-time team captain. The importance of his leadership during his career cannot be overstated.”
The Patriots are entering their new era under Mike Vrabel, and Andrews represented the last standout player from the Brady-Belichick years.
Andrews, 32, won Super Bowls 2015 and 2017 and spent 10 years with the franchise, though he did not play in 2019.
