Drew Brees nominated for FedEx Air Player of the Week

Drew Brees was nominated for the FedEx Air Player of the Week award after throwing for 363 yards and 4 touchdowns in a leave-no-doubt victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has been nominated again for the FedEx Air Player of the Week award, which you can vote on by following this link. Brees previously won the award in Weeks 3, 5, and 9, tying Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes for the most on the year so far.

Brees was nominated after throwing for 363 yards and 4 touchdowns in a leave-no-doubt victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. His competition includes Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff (413 yards and 4 touchdowns) and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck (297 yards and 3 touchdowns).

The winners of this recognition also bring support off the field. From the Saints’ official team site:

The weekly FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Week Awards are also a win for local communities. Along with the player awards, FedEx is making a $2,000 donation in each of the winning players’ names that will go to the USO through FedEx Cares. The donation will be used to support USO programs that keep service members connected to family, home and country as they depart the military and find a new path in civilian life.
