The legendary NFL passer last played November 15 against the 49ers. So, he’ll have been out for more than a month.

Drew Brees is literally returning at the perfect time for the Saints. They’re currently 10-3, have three remaining regular season games and a matchup against the Chiefs Sunday.
The team is gearing up to make a run, and Taysom Hill isn’t going to get the job done. No fear because Brees is here!

Now, it’s time to find out whether or not Brees can make a serious Super Bowl run in what very likely could be his final season.
If there’s one thing we know about him, he’s a tough dude and is never afraid of slinging the rock down field.
I certainly wouldn’t bet against him.

It should be a bunch of fun Sunday to see what he can do in his return against Patrick Mahomes and company.
