Drew Brees (thumb) resumes throwing ahead of Week 5

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees posted a video on Instagram Saturday showing him throwing and catching passes.

What It Means:

Brees' injured his thumb in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams and his original timetable for return was 6-8 weeks. Brees is expected to return in Week 10 following the Saints Week 9 bye.

Assuming he returns to action in Week 10, our models project Brees to record 196.7 completions for 2180.7 yards, 13.47 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions over the rest of the season.
