The New Orleans Saints’ season came to an end with a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round. Shortly after, rumors of Drew Brees’ retirement started to circulate. Brees was caught on the sideline appearing to tell Jameis Winston this is his team now. On Wednesday morning, Saints head coach Sean Payton addressed the team’s questions at quarterback. He spent some time on Good Morning Football and spoke about potentially bringing back Jameis Winston for the 2021 season.

Payton made it clear he liked having Winston in the quarterback room during the 2020 campaign and would like to have him back for another season.
“And a lot of times, you want to hold your cards closer to the vest and he is a free agent. But him, along with Taysom Hill who’s in the building, we’ve said it all along — we’re going to develop and coach those guys. And Jameis is one of those guys that we have a big interest in.”
Should Drew Brees retire this summer as expected, the Saints will have a new starting quarterback for the 2021 NFL season. The question mark is that Sean Payton has shown some allegiance to Taysom Hill. It was Hill who took over as the starting quarterback when Drew Brees went down with injuries. Regardless, Sean Payton and the Saints seem set on bring Winston back.
Who will be the starting quarterback for the Saints in 2021? Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe Brees will decide it’s not quite time for him to walk away.
