Allen said Monday that there has been no discussion about Brees returning to New Orleans.

Allen stated that he thought it was a joke, and they have not had any conversations about it.

Brees is second in NFL history in passing yards (80.358) and touchdown passes (571), only behind only Tom BradyBoth categories.

Allen was asked if he believes Brees can still perform well in the NFL despite Brady's brief retirement.

Allen stated, “I don’t want to live in these hypothetical worlds right at the moment.” “We'll wait to see how it all turns out, but he caused quite a bit of interest that's for certain.”
