Trainer posts Drew Brees workout video, suggesting “something needs to come”

Drew Brees is retiring. Unless he’s not.

Fitness trainer Todd Durkin recently posted a video on Instagram which shows Brees pushing a weighted sled as Durkin utters a series of superlatives: “What’s he doing?” . . . Drew, what are you doing? OK, he never did that! . . . I don’t know what he’s doing. . . . I’m not sure what he’s doing. Never quite been done before! . . . This is a new record because it has never been done before!

At one point, these words appear on the video: “I don’t know why he’s so mad today, but something has to come up.”

The video appeared at a time when Brees is yet to retire and more and more people are wondering if he will. After watching Tom Brady’s Buccaneers (a team swept away by the Saints in the regular season) win the Super Bowl, Brees may be planning to pursue his career for at least another year.

Either way, Brees doesn’t train as someone who’s generally committed to a healthy lifestyle, but as someone who trains for something. Something which, as Durkin noted in his video, “must be brewing.”
