METAIRIE, La. -- Drew Brees has not announced when he plans to retire. So there has been no sort of formal “farewell tour” surrounding his 20th NFL season.
But just in case this happens to be his last Monday Night Football appearance, it’s worth appreciating how many special moments the New Orleans Saints quarterback has experienced on this prime-time stage.
Brees broke the NFL records for career passing yards, career passing touchdowns, single-season passing yards and single-game completion percentage on Monday nights. He produced the only perfect passer rating of his career in a Monday night win over the New England Patriots during the Saints’ 2009 Super Bowl season.
