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.

Besides, he's done.
He could walk in off the streets and start any given Sunday compared to what we have

No he can't & Brees is done. Under no circumstances is he remotely interested in suiting up at age 43 to have 300 + lb man chase, hit, and sack him for 4 quarters of NFL competition. End of an era, the book is closed. Father time is undefeated.

He's not returning to play football. Period. It's the off-season. The media will take any story and run with it, hoping that it sticks.

Whether you want to accept it or not, coach Dennis Allen is team Jameis Winston for 2022.

"I think it was a comment made in jest, and we certainly haven't had any conversations in that regard," Allen said.

Allen had a follow-up question that asked if Brees could still do it.

"I don't really want to live in those hypothetical worlds right now. We'll see where it all goes, but certainly he caused a lot of interest, that's for sure."

General manager Mickey Loomis said he didn't see it either, and also hasn't talked to Brees. It's hard envisioning this scenario playing out, but certainly makes for a fairy tale type of scenario. For the foreseeable future, this is Jameis Winston's team, and he's the unquestioned starter going into the season.

If you listen...........you can hear very faintly "The Four Hoarse Men Of The B&G" "Could'a, Would'a, Should'a and What If? " Could'a, Would'a, Should'a and What If? "COULD'A, WOULD'A, SHOULD'A AND WHAT IF?" If Payton were still coach, he'd be listening.............

Heal, not grow a new arm.
