If Drew comes back in a couple of weeks, he's getting some new tech medical assistance. Maybe he is. But I doubt it. Let him completely heal, about 4 to 6 weeks.
A quick bit of research research shows that pain from a broken sternum is very debilitating and can last for months. Rib pain is apparently not as severe and can easily be relieved by injections. Bet that was a ***** living with. Sounds difficult. It said that just using your arms brings on severe pain. Argh.

And, yes, you can expect Brees would have access to a hyperbaric chamber and bone stimulators and such that our insurance doesn't cover.

Oh, and don't forget, Brees was already playing with broken ribs coming into the 49er's game.
