Drew Brees has announced his retirement, and the Buccaneers officially own the NFC South.

Thank goodness, it has finally happened. Drew Brees announced his retirement today, and this moment just feels like Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly leaving the Panthers. The Buccaneers are celebrating.

Brees has dominated the Bucs for the vast majority of his NFL career, and now, Tampa Bay won’t have to face a clear lock for the Hall of Fame two to three times a season.
