Those records were broken during the 2021 season by Tampa Bay\u2019s Tom Brady, who announced his retirement only to walk it back a short time later.<\/p>\n<p>According to Fox News, the Saints have already tried to lure Brees out of retirement once: \u201cHe was mentioned as a possible replacement as the Saints quarterback when Jameis Winston went down with a torn ACL last season. The Saints reached out to Brees at the time last year, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nola.com\/sports\/jeff_duncan\/article_7afe757a-64e9-11ec-9192-2b4e966ea67f.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New Orleans Times-Picayune<\/a> reported.

And obviously hated to see him have that injury, especially I know how hard he\u2019s worked to prepare himself to go play and lead that team. And he was doing such a great job, so yeah, I just feel for him,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/popculture.com\/sports\/news\/drew-brees-reveals-misses-most-playing-nfl\/\">told Pop Culture<\/a> last November.<\/p>\n<p>He did say that he does miss elements of the game, adding, \u201cThere\u2019s elements I miss about playing.
