Breesus

Retires.

Here's the message the Saints org left for him at some social media place:
"You came to us at our lowest point.
You led us to our highest.
You represented our state, city, and team with incredible professionalism, class, and toughness.
We are forever grateful for the immeasurable impact you and your family had on this city."

If you've seen his retirement notice on Instagram, it was given by his children, not him.
He'll be ok. The Saints owe him a few million in dead money and NBC has already offered him a multi-million dollar contract. Brees will probably start out doing Notre Dame (he is an old Purdue guy and knows a lot abiut the Midwest) and eventually take over for Collinsworth on Sunday Night Football.
Besides, he's building a new house in Hawaii and he has his homes in New Orleans and San Diego.
Personally, I think he should keep residency in New Orleans, for at least a good part of the year. Cassidy will be in the Senate for five more years. Brees is a moderate Republican and would be tailor-made for this state.
Brees could win in a walk.
