Ranking NFL quarterbacks on their potential cornhole talents
By Conor Dorney
4. Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints
With each passing year, Drew Brees appears to shrink further and further into his shoulder pads, leading some to believe that he will be comprised entirely of arms and a deep understanding of the playbook as soon as 2020.
Before last season, however, Brees showed his cornhole expertise in a video from Saints training camp that pitted the team’s quarterbacks against its coaches for cornhole glory.
Besides the obvious question of “why is Chase Daniel so good at this,” Brees was more than able to hold his own. And, yes, I am aware that playing with full size football is not technically part of the rules of cornhole but I’m willing to give Brees a pass simply for the degree of difficulty.
As long as rules for cornhole never involve having to tackle Stefon Diggs late in the game in the secondary, Brees and the Saints should be ready to show off their electric cornhole offense to the rest of the league in 2018.
