Drew Brees: Marques Colston has route “guidelines,” not “rules”

About a month-and-a-half after the Saints signed quarterback Drew Brees, the club selected wide receiver Marques Colston with its final pick in the 2006 NFL Draft.

Both moves, of course, have worked out splendidly for New Orleans. Brees has been one of the NFL’s top quarterbacks throughout his nine-season tenure, and Colston has been one of his prime targets throughout that span, hauling 607 regular season passes.

Speaking to reporters Wednesday, Brees noted the “huge trust and confidence factor” he has with the 31-year-old Colston, with the quarterback indicating the receiver’s experience in the Saints’ scheme allows him to adjust routes as needed.

“There’s a way a route is drawn up on the blackboard and then there’s a way you actually execute it on the field depending on the type of coverage and the technique and what you’re seeing,” Brees said Wednesday, according to the club.
