Andrews started Thursday's preseason loss to the Colts, indicating that he is past the ankle injury he suffered in the Eagles' second exhibition contest versus Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
This is good news for Andrews, who has a legitimate shot of making Philadelphia's initial 53-man roster. The veteran can play both guard and center, giving him extra value as depth on the offensive line if he indeed makes the club.

Andrews injured his ankle in Thursday's preseason game against Cleveland and won't return, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews is competing for a spot on the Eagles' 53-man roster, so it could be a blow to his chances if he's forced to miss additional time. The veteran is able to play both center and guard, which may give him an edge for making the team if he is healthy.

Andrews was added to the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews has been in and out of the Falcons' lineup this season due to both a hand injury and for personal reasons. Given that Atlanta plays Thursday against New England, he is almost certain the team's Week 11 contest as well.

Andrews (personal) was not on the Falcons' injury report Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews was sidelined with a personal issue in Week 9 against New Orleans. He also missed the first six games of the season due to a broken hand, so he'll look to get on track in Week 10 against the Cowboys and beyond.

EDGE Analysis

Andrews (hand) was activated from IR on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews has yet to play this season since suffering a broken hand during camp. He was likely going to start over Jalen Mayfield had he not been injured, but whether he can still earn that role remains to be seen.

Andrews (hand) has been designated to return from injured reserve and is practicing Wednesday, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrews had been battling Jalen Mayfield for the starting left guard spot before breaking his hand. The 30-year-old Andrews has a three-week window to be added to the active roster. If he isn't, then he will spend the remainder of the season on IR. It's unclear if the rookie Mayfield has done enough to hold onto this starting spot when Andrews is healthy.

The Falcons placed Andrews (hand) on injured reserve Wednesday, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rothstein reports that Andrews appeared to be pulling away from rookie Jalen Mayfield to win the starting left guard spot before breaking his hand. He will be forced to miss at least the first three weeks of the season after landing on IR.
