Saints fans are getting used to this annual rite. Drew Brees is set to become a free agent in March. And this and that other quarterback in the NFL has signed some ridiculous contract. So, of course, Brees, being the best ever, is going to want one billion dollars and a signing bonus to match. Apologies for the umpteenth Drew Brees free agency article over the past few weeks. But news keeps popping up that needs to be addressed.
The most recent examples are Alex Smith and Jimmy Garoppolo. The news about Garoppolo just came out on Thursday.
