The longer he waits the more likely he’s coming back?

That's how I'm reading it.

It’s over fam. He’s done. He would have never taken such a drastic pay cut to play for so little. Brees is a team player, but he ain’t playing for $1 million.

WW_Who_Dat · 03-11-2021, 08:18 PM

If he played he would be playing for the vet minimum plus the 11+ million in guaranteed money for this year and then 11 million + for next year. Am I seeing this all wrong. Probably not much less than Brady will be playing for after he contract extension and give back to get more talent.

Pay him 20 mill or Jamessis that or more to keep him. I want to move on but just maybe one more from Drew, won’t kill me, whatever I’m ready. I do think Drew can surpass Tom Brady’s asre with a heathy year.

The front office has to have already decided what to do and the deal is done for Drew to retire. But you know Sean. He never shows his hand and is full of surprises.

The organization knows the answer. The reason he hasn’t announced it is by design.
Odds are favorable that the 2021 team will have less talent than we have seen in a while. Brees won’t have the benefit of a dominant defense to help keep us in games and we certainly won’t have as much depth as we have had in recent years. This is going to make it much harder on Brees to help us get another Lombardi. It will likely be a down year and I would rather see him retire this year, after a playoff season than retire after a season where we miss the playoffs.
I also don’t think his body can handle a full season and I don’t think some the players are behind him. It’s just time.

The front office isn't who is deciding. Brees is and they would love to have him back.
