Former Saints quarterback Drew Brees proved to be one of the best locker-room leaders in the NFL during his playing days in New Orleans. His career on the gridiron might be over now, but on Sunday, he decided to bring his knack for motivating others to a baseball diamond in Baton Rouge.
Before the LSU baseball team took the field for its game against No. 16 Georgia at Alex Box Stadium, Brees gave the players a rousing pre-game speech. Donning a No. 9 LSU jersey and with his three sons standing nearby, the former Super Bowl champion led the Tigers in a chant from his days on the field, hyping them up before the first pitch.
