Drew Brees wins Clutch Performer of the Year from fans

MINNEAPOLIS -- New Orleans Saints rookies Alvin Kamara and Marshon Lattimore made history on Saturday night, but quarterback Drew Brees received some hardware from NFL Honors, too.

Brees received the Clutch Performer of the Year award, winning it as a result of the comeback he led in Week 11 against Washington. The award from Castrol Edge was determined by fan voting.

Brees threw two touchdown passes in the final 3 minutes of that game to help the Saints overcome a 15-point deficit in the fourth quarter. The Saints went on to win in overtime.

In that game, Brees completed all 11 of his passes on the final two drives, gaining 164 yards along with the two scores.
