New England Patriots center David Andrews is set for season-ending shoulder surgery, as confirmed by coach Jerod Mayo. Andrews, a seasoned veteran and team captain, left the recent game against the San Francisco 49ers early and is contemplating whether to attempt to play through the injury.
The Patriots have struggled with their offensive line, leading to quarterback Jacoby Brissett being sacked frequently. With multiple injuries affecting the roster, the team is looking to backup Nick Leverett to step up in Andrews' absence.
Brissett emphasized the importance of Andrews in the team dynamic, stating he plays a crucial role in the offense. Andrews, who has been with the Patriots since 2015, may have a future coaching role within the organization.
