David Andrews wiped a tear from his eye and walked away from the podium at the end of his postgame media availability Sunday.
He was asked how much Patriots teammates and veterans Devin McCourty and Matthew Slater mean to him.
“A lot,” said Andrews.
At this point, no announcement has been made about the futures of the two oldest players on the Patriots’ roster. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick seemed to indicate that he would be open to having them both back next year if they choose to return.
“If that’s the case we’ll talk about it later,” Belichick said.
