Brees coming back

He also said he's considering joining the pickle ball league...so I'm pretty sure he was being tongue in cheek with the football remark.

Maybe he’s joining the pickle ball league as an announcer ?

Maybe, IMO he's not a big enough doosh to fit in with Florio & Sims comfortably.

Besides, he's done.

As stated in the other thread, he can't chuck the ball past 20 yards, certainly not the deep ball like Jameis can. Defenses would just crowd the line as before. His quick release and decisions and a great asset, but he simply can't take a whole season anymore and is spent by the time the playoffs come around.

Mebbe he comes back as a coach?

The media can act like WWE at times. They took his comment and ran with it. Brees is probably already planning his next business venture.

Drama.

The only "coaching" I see Brees doing is for his second-oldest - Bowen. Only 12 but is super competitive like his dad.

This ^^^

The media is so starved for clicks that they try to turn everything into news. Brees just had shoulder surgery last month so even if he was serious about football (which he clearly wasn't) then he would be ready this year anyway.

It all comes down to Brees wanting to do game broadcasts and NBC only having a single crew with the one game per week with Cris Collinsworth staying on as the sole color commentator.

If Seattle will give us any picks I will take them. Brees arm and Lockett + Metcalf as deep threats would be an interesting combo.

Brees arm? Deep threat?

In all fairness he had other injuries too. Maybe a year off has allowed him to heal overall.

Heal, not grow a new arm.
