David Andrews and Alex Wright to have season ending surgery
1 year ago - Sportingbase
According to the Associated Press, it was announced this week that two National Football League players will have season ending surgery. They are New England Patriots center David Andrews of Jones Creek, Georgia, and Cleveland Browns defensive end Alex Wright of Albany, Georgia. Andrews injured his shoulder on Sunday in the Patriots’s 30-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Wright, meanwhile, injured his triceps during a joint practice with the Minnesota Vikings in August. Former NFL head coach Bill Belichick conducted joint practices on occasion, and I never thought they were a good idea.
Andrews has spent nine seasons with the Patriots on their offensive line. He has been with them from 2015 to 2018, and again from 2020 to 2024. Andrews missed the entire 2019 NFL season because of a pulmonary embolism. In 124 games, he has had seven fumble recoveries, and won two Super Bowls. Andrews was part of the Patriots teams that won Super Bowl LI (remarkable Patriots comeback win over the Atlanta Falcons), and Super Bowl LIII (13-3 Patriots win over the Los Angeles Rams).
Wright has been playing through pain the first month of the 2024 National Football League regular season. In four games, he has had one quarterback sack, eight tackles (five solo tackles and three assisted tackles), one quarterback hit, one safety, and one tackle for a loss. The safety, tackle for a loss, quarterback hit and sack came in an 18-13 Browns win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 15. Wright is one of three players to have a safety this season. The other two are Denver Broncos defensive lineman Zach Allen of New Canaan, Connecticut, and Seattle Seahawks defensive lineman Dre’Mont Jones of Cleveland, Ohio.
