New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has agreed to a two-year contract worth approximately $50 million on Tuesday.
The $25 million per season average is the same value as the previous deal he signed with New Orleans in 2018.
Brees, who announced earlier this month that he planned to return to the Saints, is the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards and touchdown passes. He was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on Wednesday.
The 41-year-old Brees started 11 games and completed 74.3 percent of his passes for 2,979 yards, 27 touchdowns and four interceptions in 2019. He missed five games with a thumb injury.
Including 14 seasons with New Orleans and five with the then-San Diego Chargers, he has thrown for 77,416 yards and 547 touchdowns in 275 games (274 starts).
