Why have the New Orleans Saints and Drew Brees not reached a contract extension?

Drew Brees has yet to be extended or restructured with the current cap hit of his contract exhaustively discussed among Saints fans and the NFL media.

I'll get an article up on CSC soon about my thoughts on the Brees contract. - cd

I’m a little late to the game, but my thoughts are pretty simple. There are only four possible reasons for why Drew Brees hasn’t been restructured and extended:

  1. Drew (or his agent) and the Saints are not able to reach a deal
  2. The Saints front office is entirely prepared for this to be Drew’s final season in New Orleans.
