The Patriots’ 2023 game in Germany officially has a date (Nov. 12) and an opponent (the Colts). As is to be expected, some of New England’s players are already looking forward to it.
“We’re super excited,” said Patriots center David Andrews during an interview on NFL Networks’s “Good Morning Football” following the league’s announcement on Wednesday.
“It’s a great opportunity to grow the game,” Andrews noted.
Some Patriots players, including Andrews, overlapped with former offensive lineman Sebastian Vollmer’s time in New England. Vollmer, who was drafted by the Patriots in 2009 and played the entirety of his NFL career there (retiring in 2017), was born in Kaarst, Germany.
