Center David Andrews receives the Patriots’ 2020 Ron Burton Community Service Award

When the New England Patriots take the field agains the Miami Dolphins in nine days, David Andrews will make his return after missing the entire 2019 season following the discovery of blood clots in his lungs. The recently reelected team captain did not just spend the weeks and months after the diagnosis rehabbing, though, but also remained an active member of the team as well as a representative of the organization within the community.

His work off the field has now earned him the Patriots’ Ron Burton Community Service Award: during the team’s annual season premiere at Gillette Stadium on Thursday, Andrews was presented with the award honoring his charitable engagement.
