Saints' Drew Brees expects to 'play a little bit more' in second preseason game

HOUSTON -- Drew Brees played just three snaps in the New Orleans Saints' first preseason game this year against the New England Patriots.

Although he's not certain, Brees thinks he'll play more on Saturday when the Saints play the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium at 7 p.m.

"I expect to play a little bit more, but I don't think that's been decided yet — or at least we haven't been told yet," Brees said after the Saints' joint practice with the Texans on Thursday.

Surely, the Saints won't make Brees play long, and his workload will likely increase again in the third preseason game.
