Thanksgiving Day is coming right up on Thursday, and for a lot of people that only means two things: turkeys and football. Among the teams slated to play on Thanksgiving are the New Orleans Saints, who will be hosting the Buffalo Bills in the third and last game of the day. Someone special is also going to witness the game live at the Caesars Superdome, and it's no other than Saints legendary quarterback Drew Brees.
No, no, no. Brees isn't going to be playing on Thursday, though there are certainly not a few Saints fan who'd love for him to unretire and be the solution to the current quarterback quandary in New Orleans. Instead, he'd be at his old stomping grounds to help Mike Tirico call the game for NBC Sports.
Brees spoke about his looming return to the Superdome, which would be the first time in two years where he'll be there with fans in full attendance, and he's got the following short but sweet reaction , per Les East of Crescent City Sports.
“No place I’d rather be,” he said.
Brees' presence could boost the Saints, who are looking to snap out of their slump, having lost in all their last three games.
