Emotional David Andrews says he didn't want to play for any team other than the Patriots
An emotional David Andrews announced his retirement on Monday, after 10 years in New England. "I didn't want to go do it for another organization," Andrews said, via Mike Reiss of "That wasn't what I had in mind to finish my career. I wanted to finish it here and I did." Advertisement Andrews, 32, was undrafted out of Georgia in 2015. He appeared in 124 regular-season games with 121 starts, and he started three Super Bowls — with two wins. A captain for eight seasons, Andrews also suffered through the down years from 2019 through 2024, during which the Patriots made the playoffs twice and didn't win a single postseason game. The Patriots released Andrews earlier this year. "As you can see, there's a lot of emotions," Andrews said. "The one that kept sticking out to me was gratitude. When I look back on the 26 years I've been blessed to play this game, that's really all I could think about. Especially playing O-line since I was 6 years old, you learn very quickly that it's not about you, it's about the team." For Andrews, the team was elite for several years. And he was a key part of a team that racked up the fifth and sixth Super Bowl wins for the New England franchise.

Morgan Moses had offseason surgery on knee injury from Week 3
New Patriots tackle Morgan Moses has yet to participate in full-team drills during the offseason program. He has a very good reason for it. Via Mike Reiss of Moses said he's recovering from offseason surgery to repair a knee injury. 'Just pacing things out,' Moses said. While playing for the Jets last season, Moses suffered an MCL sprain and a bone bruise during a Week 3 Thursday night win. He missed two games at the time. He also was inactive for the regular-season finale against the Dolphins. A third-round pick of the Commanders in 2014, the 34-year-old Morgan spent seven years in Washington before playing for the Jets in 2021 and again in 2024. In 2022 and 2023, Moses played for the Ravens. He signed a three-year, $24 million free-agent contract with the Patriots in March. He's one of several veteran players the Patriots have brought to town as they continue to try to return to contender status in the AFC.
