Brees played this year under an $8 million, one-year contract as the team's "franchise" player, while backup Philip Rivers has four years left on his contract.Rivers replaced Brees on Saturday and led the Chargers on their only scoring drive.The Chargers (9-7) missed the playoffs for the ninth time in 10 seasons.</div>http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2278077Im starting to doubt Philip Rivers is going anywhere, especially when Brees will become a free agent this offseason.
I knew this was coming, dont know why but i had a feeling. Maybe if they get rid of Rivers, i bet Drew Brees will end up playing bad.
I feel really bad for Brees. He's a FA as Derek (I think that's Ven0ms name) stated, and he would've gotten a lot of money. I think this injury could turn out to be a $10mil injury.
Could be more then 10 million....a torn labrum is a serious injury for a quarterback, almost as serious as Chad Pennington tearing his rotator cuff, if there are long term effects of this injury like a loss in some of his arm strength (which was fairly mediocre to begin with) it could be disasterous for him.PS: Yeah, its Derek.
