Does Brees make the retirement announcement on Feb 1st?

Everything is so calculated (including Brittany’s post today) from a publicity standpoint.

I am assuming there is some master planning with agents that let Rivers have his day in the spotlight today and then Drew will take Super Bowl week so NBC can push him all up and down media row.

Then it looks like Drew had to “think long and hard” about his decision (that is why he didn’t announce after the game).

Just retire already. His ego is getting the best of him.

Why do you care if he retires today or next month?

Doesn’t he already have a broadcast contract? If he retires now he can actually cover the SB instead of getting, as you said, pushed all over the red carpet.

you say that - yet I do not recall him being egotistical at all - by all accounts he seems to be very humble. but by all means, keep raging over a complete stranger.

I think the last thing he wants to do right now is announce his retirement and then be at the Super Bowl for NBC.

Saints need him to retire in June for salary cap reasons. He’s retiring

He needs to sign a 4 year, 8 million dollar deal and show up to training camp every season and immediately go on IR so we can spread his enormous cap hit out

He want retire at all. There is no way his ego can handle what happened to him on Sunday. If I’m wrong I will take my medicine.

I really do not expect anything before the June 1 cap break. They can potentially save $22M against the cap.

Could that mean the paperwork is turned in June 2nd for the cap savings.
