Well, that was the point though. Drew Brees may have been offered a contract, but it was to come in as a back up. Which at the end of the day, was a slap in the face.
I do understand from their point of view that he was hurt, and doctors didn't know how he would recover, but, the contract offer itself in my opinion, wasn't really one to be taken seriously.
Obviously, it worked out the best possible way for Brees.
