Drew Brees, 13-time Pro Bowl and New Orleans Saints quarterback, is planning for life after football.

He has signed with NBC Sports to become a sports analyst after he retires from the NFL, according to the New York Post.

In February after last season, Brees announced on social media that he was not retiring. Then, Brees signed a two-year, $50 million contract with the Saints in March. He is 41 years old and has not given a hint on when he will hang up his football cleats.

Brees is the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards with 77,416, and he also has 547 passing touchdowns..
