So here’s some potentially big news from the Thursday injury report: New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees was limited again in practice while managing an injury to his throwing shoulder. Brees was initially listed as limited on Wednesday’s injury report, though he later downplayed the situation in a press conference call.
“I’m always limited on Wednesday,” Brees told The Athletic’s Katherine Terrell. “I’m 41 years old, I’ve got a lot of stuff going on, but just keep ticking.”
Brees referenced his weekly load management, which the Saints adopted several years ago by resting him out during team drills on Wednesdays to preserve strength in his throwing arm.
