On Sunday afternoon, Drew Brees announced his retirement, ending a 20-year career that began with the San Diego Chargers (2001-05) and ended with the New Orleans Saints (2006-20). Countless accolades and honors follow Brees into retirement, including a championship ring and MVP Award from Super Bowl XLIV. Induction into Canton’s Pro Football Hall of Fame more than likely awaits.
Despite their lack of championship success during Brees’ reign, the Jets were one of the few teams that managed to have his number, as they were one of five teams to own a winning record against his squads (4-3, including postseason).
