Retired QB Drew Brees hinted that a comeback was possible while addressing his future on Sunday, May 15, following reports saying he was done as a broadcaster with NBC. ''I may work for NBC, I may play football again, I may focus on business and philanthropy, I may train for the pickleball tour, senior golf tour, coach my kids or all of the above. I'll let you know,'' Brees tweeted. However, New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen believes Brees wasn't serious about unretiring. ''I think the comment was made in jest,'' Allen said.
