Drew Brees on his game-ending injury: multiple rib fractures, collapsed lung

For everyone that thinks he focus is statistical and not team oriented, the action and words speak otherwise.

UPDATE - Brees suffers multiple rib fractures, collapsed lung

“I actually felt terrible before the two minute drive, but just had to find a way,” Brees said, referring to a possession he capped with a touchdown pass to Alvin Kamara. It was the final pass he threw on Sunday, ceding the job to Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill after halftime.

Agreed. We all know how competitive he is. For Brees to admit he couldn't go, this has to be bad.

Remember when Drew wouldn't let his backup see the field? I hope he's alright.

I knew it was bad when Drew took himself out the game, guy never does that.

I hope this isn't how it ends.

He said it wasn't pain that was the issue. It was spasms and tightening. It certainly doesn't sound career threatening. LOL! His game depends upon touch and those things would directly affect that. Don't forget he did go 5 for 6 passing AFTER the injury on that two minute scoring drive.

I’m hoping I heard rite, was he having back spasms did Payton mention that?

3 cracked ribs on the right, 2 on the left, and a collapsed lung.
All the Brees haters hopes and dreams have come true!
