So, does this lower Brees on the Fantasy charts?
Had him right up there with Brady and Manning... still there? Or an obvious 3rd or worse now?

Terrible. Bad relationship or not, still gotta be tough on Drew Brees. Nice guy and a real pro....his on-field performance won't suffer.

definitely hate hearing these types of stories

always made worse when there was something unsettled between a deceased parent and one of their sons or daughters

hope that brees can get some kind of closure eventually and continue doing what he's done in the NFL

RIP

Which might fuk him up even more.. this will screw with his head for at least a few regular season games before settling in.. could motivate his teammates though to play hard for him.

either way sucks to hear.
