The Facts: Drew Brees is getting a second opinion on whether or not he should undergo hand surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb. There is no timetable for this decision.
Diehards Line:It's unlikely that this changes anything for the future Hall of Famer. Assuming Brees does miss extended time, Teddy Bridgewater will be the starter. Expect less fantasy production on all fronts for the Saints offense, especially Alvin Kamara, who has relied on his connection with Brees to dominate through the air.
