Andrews (ankle) won't play in Houston's matchup versus the Buccaneers on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews will miss the team's Week 2 matchup after having suffered a high ankle sprain during last week's loss versus the Rams. There is currently no timetable on Andrews' return. In his absence, Jarrett Patterson will likely get the start at center for Monday's matchup.

Andrews has a high-ankle sprain, and his return timetable is undetermined, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was injured in the second half of Houston's Week 1 loss to the Rams. He had to be carted off the field, so while he seems likely to miss time, his diagnosis isn't a worst-case scenario. Jarrett Patterson is slated to start at center for the Texans until Andrews is ready to return.

Head coach DeMeco Ryans told reporters that the Texans will monitor a foot injury that Andrews picked up during Sunday's 14-9 loss to the Rams, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was carted off the field in the second half of Sunday's game with what was reported at the time as an ankle injury. He'll undergo further tests to determine the exact nature and severity of the injury, but it puts the 2023 fourth-rounder in jeopardy of missing the Texans' Week 2 clash against the Buccaneers on Monday, Sept. 15. Jarrett Patterson would be the top candidate to start at center if Andrews is sidelined for an extended period of time.

The Texans claimed Andrews off waivers Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews is headed to Houston after having been waived by the Patriots on Monday. The 2023 fourth-round pick will likely compete for a backup spot along the interior of the team's offensive line.

Andrews (knee) was waived by the Patriots on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The 2023 fourth-round pick from Troy missed all of the Patriots' 2024 campaign due to a knee injury sustained in early August. However, he was let go without an injury designation Monday, implying he's fully recovered from the issue. Andrews appeared in 16 games (one start) for New England in 2023, logging 120 total snaps (70 on offense, 50 on special teams).

Andrews (knee) is expected to be ready for the start of OTAs next offseason, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews never suited up this season and was placed on the active/PUP list after training camp began, then moved to IR in August. The Troy product was expected to be New England's starting center this season, but it sounds like he'll have the opportunity to take back that role in 2025.

The Patriots placed Andrews (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday, ending his 2024 season.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews began training camp on the active/PUP list, and he ultimately didn't get a chance to practice before being shut down with an undisclosed injury. In the wake of this transaction, veteran David Andrews figures to step up as New England's starting center, and the team's depth grows thinner along the interior of the offensive line.

Andrews (undisclosed) was placed on New England's active/PUP list Tuesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Patriots are now shorthanded on the interior of their offensive line for the start of training camp, as both Andrews and Cole Strange (knee) are now on the PUP list. Once healthy, the rookie fourth-round pick will have an opportunity to compete for the starting center job.
