The organization might come to me and tell me it\u2019s time to move on,&#8221; said Andrews <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masslive.com\/patriots\/2025\/01\/patriots-captain-david-andrews-reveals-plans-for-2025.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>via Chris Mason of MassLive<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 &#8220;I might get into OTAs and training camp and know I can\u2019t do it. If the organization decides to go in a different way, that\u2019s their choice. I hope that\u2019s not the case. I want to play football. I\u2019ve done this for a long 26 years. I\u2019d like to make it to 27 and see where it goes from there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, he won&#8217;t get that opportunity.\u00a0 However, the 32-year-old has had an amazing career, having won two championships along with being an eight-time captain.\u00a0 Reiss reports that should Andrews choose not to play elsewhere, the club will likely hold a retirement ceremony for him.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, one of the challenges Mike Vrabel&#8217;s team will also have to deal with is the fact his loss adds another void in leadership, both on offense and in the locker room.\u00a0 New England also recently lost both Jonathan Jones and Deatrich Wise, with both players departing to Washington this week.<\/p>\n<p>However, offense remains an area where there wasn&#8217;t much in terms of veterans as it was to set an example for some of the younger players, and today&#8217;s news only further complicates things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There will
