If anyone could be coasting during this abysmal 3-10 season for the Patriots, it’s David Andrews. As a 31 year old veteran whose been beaten up during his now nine-year career, it would be understandable if Andrews wasn’t as engaged or committed to the every day grind – especially in December – when the team is just struggling to keep its head above water.
