David Andrews Fantasy

The New England Patriots restructured center David Andrews' contract on Friday, creating $2.1 million in salary cap space for the 2022 season by converting $3.15 million of his compensation into a signing bonus, according to a source. Andrews' updated 2022 salary cap charge is now $4.275 million. The 29-year-old had offseason shoulder surgery, but he's expected to be ready to go in Week 1 as New England's starting center. Andrews began his career in 2015 and has played all six of his NFL seasons for Bill Belichick and the Patriots.

The New England Patriots re-signed starting center David Andrews to an undisclosed four-year deal on Thursday, according to a source. It was believed that Andrews would go elsewhere when New England reunited with center Ted Karras on a one-year deal earlier this week. The 28-year-old Andrews spent the first six seasons of his career with the Patriots and has been a key cog on two Super Bowl champion teams. The Georgia native started 12 games in 2020 after missing the entire 2019 season due to blood clots in his lungs. In his career, Andrews has played in 72 regular season games (69 starts) and has also suited up for 11 playoff games (nine starts). It's obviously bad news for Karras.

New England Patriots impending free-agent center David Andrews said he "would love to stay" with the team in 2021 and beyond. Left guard Joe Thuney will also be a free agent, but he played last year on the franchise tag and could become too expensive for the Patriots as one of the best guards in the league. The 28-year-old Andrews has been with the team for six seasons since signing as an undrafted free agent out of Georgia. He's played in 72 career games (69 starts) and has won two Super Bowls with the Patriots. The team's offensive line struggled in 2019 when Andrews was out with blood clotting, showing just how important Andrews is to the offense. New England must also find out who they will use at quarterback in 2021, but retaining Andrews could be a high priority as well.
