I wouldn't post it if I didn't read it or see it somewhere.

“I signed a one-year extension ... so I plan on playing that out and just allowing things to take form and take shape here for next year and putting forth my absolute best effort to help us win a division championship and then a world championship and then again, just one year at a time,” Brees said. “And that’s not a lack of commitment or anything like that. I just want to focus on what’s right in front of me.”

I had missed that entirely. Not much mentioned about it elsewhere. Although, if for some reason cap space is needed, some could be realized from an extension. But, his $24 million hit in 2016 isn't that bad compared to his value.
