David Andrews, Mike Onwenu, Anfernee Jennings and Cole Strange visit Hasbro Children’s Hospital

There was a lot to consider for David Andrews the last few days.

Injured in the Patriots Week 4 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, New England’s veteran center had to weigh the options of getting season-ending surgery or playing through it.

The kids at Hasbro Children’s Hospital, however, would never have guessed what was going on in his head when Andrews visited Tuesday with teammates Mike Onwenu, Anfernee Jennings, and Cole Strange. He knew from experience that those children deserved his full attention.

“Worth spent five days here (at Hasbro), so it was good to come back on these terms,” Andrews said, referring to the challenges he and his wife faced when their three-month-old son was born.

“We always go to Boston Children’s and I love everything they do, but I remember when Worth got out I wanted to work something out to visit Hasbro. There’s a lot of kids here, and thankfully we were in a great situation (with the care Worth received), but there are a lot of kids going through stuff here. You always try to keep that in perspective, and coming back today is my way of saying thank you.”
