Should we be concerned about David Andrews?

Hi DD. David Andrews hasn't been at practice the last two days. Dante Scarnecchia said "we'll find out" when I asked him today if everything is OK with him.

Mentioned in the practice notes thread, but the most common rumor going around is that he’s dealing with blood clots.

I sure hope that's not true.

Me either. I wonder if warfarin would be a sensible method of treatment.

Where is that rumor coming from?

Why are people using the funny rating here...?

It's a twitter rumor.

But Scar answering "we'll find out" when asked about Andrews isn't exactly what I want to hear.

Reading way between the lines coming from the were on the Cincinnati organization.
What else would you expect scar to say.
I would expect that answer for anything from Ebola to a hangnail.

Why do people find this "funny"?

How about "it's nothing major and we expect him back for the opener."

 

[mcmurtry86]

Definitely concerned. That’s a big loss if he’s out.

Scar tends to be more forthcoming than Belichick, or others within the organization.

You seriously think scar would say that? This is the patriots coaching staff. Can you show me a single example ever of scar answering an injury question with anything but a cliche?

 

[Ring 6]

I haven’t seen that. Can you give some examples where he answered sincerely and openly about players injuries?

That sucks, bear is the leader on the OL, and a team captain.

Patriots O-line coach Dante Scarnecchia sounds optimistic about Isaiah Wynn

“Well, he’s rehabbing for his Achilles,” Scarnecchia told reporters on Friday when asked about the second-year man. “He’s done a great job. We are going to let the process go forward and as soon as he can get out there, we’ll get him out there. We’ll see. [...] What he’s doing right now is all tied to his health. He’s getting better and all of that. That’s a process and it’s going really well.”

Ok but that doesn’t sound all that much different than we’ll see, just a little more verbose.

"He's done a great job"
"He's getting better"
"That's a process and it's going really well"

A lot different than "we'll find out". The latter indicates uncertainty.

I don't want to jump to conclusions but the blood clot explanation makes sense as that diagnosis often involves testing and investigation to figure out location, extent, etc.

Scar likely would've said something to the effect of, "he'll be fine", or "he's alright" if it was a minor ding.

And none of this is to say that Andrews is done for, but Scar is generally candid so for him to indicate uncertainty around Andrews' status/health means just that -- things are up in the air.

I’m not getting alarmed.
I get where you are coming from but I really don’t see a big difference in the responses.

I’m not into reading tea leaves or finding conspiracy theories. I don’t understand how “Twitter” would have medical diagnoses.

So whats the plan if Andrews is out for a while?
