Drew Brees thinks he is playing for the Saints in Carolina this Sunday — he is not.

The New Orleans Saints are starting everyone’s favorite backup quarterback this Sunday, as Luke McCown is under center with Drew Brees out with a shoulder injury. But you can’t expect Brees to just sit idly by while his team is out on the field taking it to a division rival.

As Luke McCown broke the Saints huddle, FO camera zeroed in on Drew Brees who was basically role playing as though he was out there breaking ht e huddle himself.

All that’s missing from this to make it the most adorably cheesy football thing ever is if Brees had his kid and those ear muffs with him at the time.

This isn’t something that you should be all that surprising to anyone. Brees is a nerd for the game and we can’t be surprised that he’s going full Sheldon Cooper on the Saints sideline even though he’s not playing. ‘

You can take Drew Brees out of the game, but you can’t take the game out of Drew Bress.

God bless that man.
