Two-time Super Bowl champion David Andrews to retire after a decade in the NFL

Two-time Super Bowl winner David Andrews is retiring from the NFL after a decade in the trenches for the New England Patriots. 

Andrews announced his retirement on Wednesday and will hold his retirement press conference on Monday. 

The 32-year-old played for his entire 10-season NFL career with the Patriots, coming into the team with the duo of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick at quarterback and head coach. 

Andrews went unselected in the 2015 NFL Draft and was picked up by Belichick as a reinforcement for the preseason.  

After playing a ton in leadup to the start of the regular season, Andrews started in Week 1 and did not give up his starting spot for 10 weeks. 

From the 2016 season on, Andrews has been the center of choice for the Patriots, helping Belichick win his final two Super Bowls in 2017 and 2019.

‘Congrats on a hellva career DA,’ former Patriot Julian Edelman said on social media. ‘Remember your first start. UFA, rookie year, had fire in his eyes and never looked back. Congrats brother!’

The former Georgia Bulldog became popular with Patriots fans after taking a 50 percent pay cut to stay with the team in 2021.  

Andrews played his last game for the Patriots last October after suffering a season-ending injury against the San Francisco 49ers. 

Andrews release in March did not see him linked with other NFL teams despite every team being keen on building their depth in the trenches. 

The behemoth finishes his NFL career with 124 games played, with 121 starts.
