Drew Brees remains in limbo as the Saints approach training camp. As we have heard for months, the quarterback said Tuesday he's "confident" a long-term contract will be worked out with the team. "I would never sit out a football season," Brees said added. "I love this game too much, I love my team too much, but obviously there's a lot that can happen between now and then, so let's just hope we can get a long-term deal done ... Over the last month, (talks have) picked up. There was a dry spell there for a bit."
