Reported by the Tacoma News Tribune
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Andrews is the surgeon who fixed Drew Brees' dislocated throwing shoulder after last season. Brees has the Saints in the NFC title game roughly a year later. ... As News Tribune staffer Mike Sando notes, Hasselbeck's injury is less serious and it is his non-throwing shoulder. But he will miss some time while rehabbing from this injury. ... The date of the surgery is pending; there is no timetable for his recovery at this point. ... Stay tuned. More as further details come to light.
