Brees played 15 seasons for the Saints from 2006-20, smashing franchise records for quarterback wins (142), passing yards (68,010) and touchdown passes (491).

Including his first five NFL seasons with the then-San Diego Chargers (2001-05), Brees ranks No. 2 all-time behind Tom Brady in pass attempts (10,551), completions (7,142), yards (80,358) and touchdowns (571).
