Drew Brees’ injury status unchanged after second opinion

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - NFL insider Ian Rapoport tweeted Wednesday that after additional testing, there has been no change in Drew Brees’ injury status.

Brees is recovering from a number of fractured ribs and a collapsed lung.

Brees sought a second opinion after being injured in last Sunday’s game against the 49ers.

After additional tests on Tuesday, there is no change in the status of #Saints QB Drew Brees, sources say. That means with his cracked ribs on both sides and punctured lung, he’s likely out at least two weeks and then see how he feels. Expect a lot of Jameis Winston for NO.
