This was my fourth straight year attending Saints practice at Tulane’s Yulman Stadium, and it may have been the most enjoyable yet. The weather was absolutely perfect as a rainbow poked out in the distance, following afternoon showers that cut the humidity and gently cooled the crowd.
As always, quarterback Drew Brees was the first player on the field and he immediately began a prophylactic warm up session off on his own. He did squat jumps, side to side lunges, karaoke shuffles, and some lateral stretches before performing different drills implementing quarterback footwork.
He wrapped his arms tightly around his body and mimicked his throwing motion with armless yet powerful torque.
