2nd opinion incoming for Brees per Werder (1 Viewer)

[SaintsNY]

Source: #Saints QB Drew Brees is having his scans sent to other medical specialists for a second opinion to determine the full scope of his chest injuries. Tests performed yesterday revealed Brees has multiple fractured ribs on both sides of his chest and a collapsed lung 1/2

Also, The scans showed five definite rib fractures but a source mentioned the possibility there might be even more. The opinion of additional doctors will help decide whether Brees should be placed on injured-reserve, a designation that would result in him missing at least three games.

i'd rather they just go and put him on IR now

What a roller coaster.

Just put him on IR and let him heal up for the playoffs!

come on winston. lets eat some Ws

the greedy side of me is mad because brady will get the TD record now. hes only 1 ahead of brady. and brady will have at least 2 games without brees playing (bye week 14)

More ribs??? how many do we even have? I mean 5 sounds like A LOT.

Going on IR makes the most logical sense. He won’t play for three games and it opens up a spot for an emergency QB (or other roster move to replace Taysom’s role if he has to focus more on QB).

If I had to bet, I’d still say Brees is back for KC

I thinks it's more human anatomy unless we are talking about John Carpenter The Thing.

With a collapsed lung he really shouldn’t be put into contact with a lot of people due to coronavirus.

This really sucks. I don’t want to see Drew like this. I hope he comes back to finish the season and hopefully win a championship!
