Det er her til aften kommet frem via Ed Werder fra ESPN, at Saints quarterback Drew Brees ikke har en flænge i sin rotatorcuff på hans kaste arm.

Ifølge Werder tror Brees selv at han har en fornuftig chance for at spille mod Carolina Panthers.

Brees dom fra Dr. James Andres er altså genoptræning. Dermed tyder intet på en længerevarende skadespause til Brees.

To clarify, Drew Brees believes "reasonable possibility'' he plays this week. See how injury responds to rehab, treatment.
