Harley Andrews (born January 16, 2029) is an American football defensive end who is currently preparing to enter the professional ranks.He played college football for University of Florida (UF) and has declared his intent to enter the professional ranks next season.

Early years

Harley Andrews was born and raised in Central Florida and has spent a great deal of his life playing football at various levels throughout the state. His parents weren't particularly known for their athletic ability, though they did participate in sports growing up and into high school. He does have a link to the ISFL though via his cousin, Harrison Andrews. Though their skillsets are very different, Harrison Andrews has been a guiding force through the early years of Harley's life and the path it has taken so far. This bloodline with a ISFL player created much more exposure for Harley, which lead to him fielding scholarship offers from D-1 universities starting in just his Freshman year of high school. Harley knew he wanted to follow the path that Harrison took to the ISFL and that included going to college at the University of Florida. He didn't make that known early on though and made sure to take full advantage of the recruiting experience of a blue chip high school football player.

College career

Throughout the college football recruiting progress, many analysts predicted Harley Andrews would sign with the University of Florida but he kept his options open until very late in the process. The analysts proved to be right though, as Andrews went with his heart and signed with the Gators. Due to the depth of talent that the Gators had on the defensive line, Andrews played very little during his freshman season, only getting snaps late in games once they were well in hand. In his sophomore season, Andrews was able to crack the first team defensive line, which he would keep hold of through his senior season. The Gators fielded strong teams for each of Andrews' seasons at Florida, but they only had one SEC Championship to show for it once he graduated. Andrews was able to add a 2nd Team All-SEC in his sophomore season and followed that up with a 2nd Team All-American and 1st Team All-American in his junior and senior seasons, respectively.

Professional career

Season 35 (London Royals)

After a All-American caliber career at the University of Florida, Harley Andrews entered the S35 DSFL Draft as one of the top defensive-end prospects and was projected to be quite high on most draft boards. In such a deep draft class though, Andrews ended up sliding a bit before finding his landing spot with the London Royals with their 3rd round pick.

Andrews immediately found himself as the anchor on a young Royals defensive line as the Royals headed into S35 looking to get back into the playoffs. Andrews kicked off the season with a bang, sacking eventual MVP, Queen Elizabeth II, twice on the way to a win in Week 1. Andrews wasn’t quite able to capture that magic again as the season went on though. He was only able to manage 5 more sacks through the remaining 13 games. Those 7 sacks were good enough to lead the Royals defense, but only 14th in the league. The Royals ultimately fell one game short of the playoffs.

Season 36 (Sarasota Sailfish)

Following a single season in London with the Royals, Andrews made his way down to Florida to play for the Sarasota Sailfish after being selected with the 26th overall pick in the Season 36 ISFL Draft. Andrews slotted right into the starting lineup after the departure of DE Caleb Watt. Andrews was an instant playmaker on the Sailfish front 7 making high impact plays throughout the season. He was able to put together an 8 sack season and was the only DE to score a safety during the season. When it came time to decide who would take home Defensive Rookie of the Year for Season 36 though, Andrews name was notably absent from discussions though he was one of the more efficient DEs at getting to the QB.

Andrews and the rest of the Sailfish defense put a stranglehold on the opposing offenses in Season 36 leading the league in scoring defense only allowing 19.2 points per game and also were good for the second best in total defense allowing 331.9 yards per game. The Sailfish finished the season at 12-4 and made the playoffs as the 2 seed in the NSFC. After wins against Yellowknife and Chicago, they would ultimately lose in the Ultimus to Honolulu.

Season 37 (Sarasota Sailfish)

Andrews headed into his sophomore season with high expectations after a stellar rookie season as a situational pass rusher for the Sailfish. He would be taking on a new role in the defense in season 37, but would be on the field full time. Shifting away from the pass rushing role, Andrews was expected to be a multi-purpose tool on the front seven by taking snaps at all linebacker positions and spelling the starting defensive linemen when they needed a breather. While this wasn’t a flashy role from a stat perspective, Andrews was a consistent contributor on a strong Sailfish defense and set a personal best in tackles.

Andrews and the rest of the Sailfish defenders combined to form one of the strongest defenses in the ISFL during season 37. They held opposing offenses to an average of 87.2 rushing yards per game, which was 1st in the ISFL. The Sailfish also held opposing offenses to 344.1 total yards per game which was good for 2nd in the ISFL.
