Drew Brees, Saints contract update: No progress

Head coach Sean Payton and general manager Mickey Loomis spoke with the media to kick off The Greenbrier training camp festivities on Wednesday. Loomis publicly stated, “We haven’t made any progress,” when asked about the 38-year-old quarterback’s future.

Loomis, who didn’t have a positive tone to his responses, added that he was available anytime they (Tom Condon and company) want to talk. That’s not exactly encouraging news for fans, as Drew Brees recently said there haven’t been any talks in three months. Brees has said that he doesn’t wish to talk about his contract once the season starts, which would seemingly put a countdown on the Saints to get an extension done.
