The Patriots on Thursday released longtime center and eight-time captain David Andrews, who won two Super Bowls with the team. Andrews has been with the team since 2015 and was tied with long snapper Joe Cardona for the longest-tenured player title, according to ESPN.

The addition of Gainwell does very little to change the Steelers need to replace Harris. Gainwell is a nice player and adds some value in the return game, which might make him a more likely replacement for Cordarrelle Patterson if he's released to save salary cap.
