The legendary player who played for New Orleans Saints took a decision to retire in 2021. With a long career of 20 years, he finally accepted a job with NBC as an analyst.

Drew Brees on Twitter tweeted – “Despite speculation from media about my future this fall, I’m currently undecided. I may work for NBC, I may play football again, I may focus on business and philanthropy, I may train for the pickleball tour, senior golf tour, coach my kids, or all of the above. I’ll let you know”
