The conversation comes up every year. It’s not a matter of when now, the time to start preparing for a post Drew Brees-era is likely to come in 2021. The first question to ponder is: can either Taysom Hill or Jameis Winston be the guy? The answer remains to be seen on both. Currently, Brees is playing at a high level after shredding the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the tune of 38-3. Still, Brees is no doubt coming to the end of a long Hall of Fame career.
No one knows if the final year will be in 2021 or 2022.
