Brees continues to impress me

Quote:

Quarterback Drew Brees will return to Birmingham, Ala., to continue rehabilitating his surgically repaired throwing shoulder. When practice ended Sunday, Brees stayed behind with several other injured offensive players who had not taken part in drills, such as McAllister, tight ends Ernie Conwell and Shad Meier and wide receiver DontÃƒÂƒÃ‚Â© Stallworth and ran through a few plays. At the end of several plays, Brees lightly tossed the ball to McAllister and smiled when asked whether those soft tosses were the first he has attempted since the Jan. 5 surgery. "Well, I mean, it's nothing nobody doesn't know about," he said. "The physical therapy folks in Birmingham know exactly what I'm doing all the time. We're right on track."

It is so obvious that this guy is ridiculously competitive and hates being on the sidelines. He just can't wait to get in there. It's also obvious that he is going to be an unbelievable leader for this team. He's already meshing with these guys and getting them to stay after practices. He just continues to impress.
