Who Dat Reunion! New Orleans Saints Unveil Plans to Bring Back Legendary Quarterback Drew Brees — The Super Bowl MVP and Franchise Icon Returns as Team Mentor and Leadership Advisor

 

New Orleans, LA — In a move that has electrified the Saints faithful and reignited memories of championship glory, the New Orleans Saints have officially announced plans to bring back legendary quarterback Drew Brees in a new role as Team Mentor and Leadership Advisor.

 

The 44-year-old Hall of Fame-bound signal caller, who famously led the Saints to their only Super Bowl victory in 2009, will now return to the franchise that became synonymous with his name—not to throw passes, but to pass on wisdom. Brees, the NFL’s former all-time passing yards leader and 13-time Pro Bowler, will work closely with the coaching staff and young quarterbacks, offering guidance on leadership, film study, and game preparation.

 

“This is home,” Brees said during the press conference at the Saints’ facility in Metairie. “I may not be wearing pads anymore, but I’m ready to pour into the next generation of Saints and help this team chase another championship.”

 

Saints General Manager Mickey Loomis praised the decision, stating, “Drew’s impact on this organization is immeasurable. His experience, insight, and leadership are exactly what this young roster needs as we transition into a new era.”

 

Brees retired after the 2020 season but remained active in the football world through media appearances and community work. His return has fans thrilled, with social media erupting in celebration and the Superdome already preparing tribute events to welcome him back.

 

As the Saints gear up for the 2025 NFL season, one thing is clear: with Drew Brees back in the building, the spirit of victory is alive once more in New Orleans.
