Saints QB Drew Brees (right shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Brees has a bruised rotator cuff, but says he’s “pretty confident” that he’ll be able to play in Week 3 against the Panthers. It’s not a great spot for him, but the Saints tend to go pass-heavy when the chips are down.

Report: Drew Brees has bruised rotator cuff

On Sept. 27, 2009, St. Louis Rams quarterback Marc Bulger grimaced in pain as medical staff examined his shoulder on the sidelines. The diagnosis came a day later: Bulger had bruised -- but not torn -- the rotator cuff in his throwing shoulder.

That's the same diagnosis reportedly given to New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, according to the latest of a flurry of reports that emerged Monday after Brees appeared to injure his right shoulder in Sunday's loss.

The good news for Brees and the Saints is that Bulger missed only one game. He returned to action two weeks after suffering the injury and played the rest of the season.

Fantasy Impact: 

The story said Bulger was the only NFL quarterback who could be found in media reports over the last 15 years to have suffered what was described as a bruised rotator cuff. The story also added Brees could be back quick but these injuries often vary a lot. The reports on Brees continue to come in and all vary seriousness. Owners of Brees may want to put a backup plan in place just in case.

Werder: Drew Brees' status depends on response to treatment

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees playing status for Sunday's game against the Panthers is suddenly up in the air.

ESPN's Ed Werder said that Brees underwent an MRI on Monday afternoon following pain and weakness in his passing shoulder. Brees admitted on Sunday afternoon that his shoulder was bothering him after he was sacked and hit against Tampa Bay.

It was one of several hits Brees would experience throughout the 26-19 loss.

"Source: #Drew Brees experienced pain, weakness in passing shoulder from TB hit. Had MRI. Response to treatment to determine playing status," Werder tweeted.

Fantasy Impact: 

We have conflicting stories about Brees' status for Week 3. Ian Rapoport said Brees could miss several games with his injury, but Werder's report is obviously more optimistic. The Saints are not commenting, according to the story. We'll continue to keep you posted.

Rapoport: Drew Brees (shoulder) could miss 'several games'

Saints believe QB Drew Brees has a shoulder injury that will likely cause him to miss games, potentially several games.

Fantasy Impact: 

There are rumors that Brees may be out for the year with a torn rotator cuff. At the very least, owners should prepare for his absence in Week 3. The loss of Brees is going to negatively impact the entire Saints offense, though Sean Payton may elect to go run-heavy with a big dose of Mark Ingram and Khiry Robinson. The defense isn’t really good enough to support such a game plan, so backup Luke McCown will have to make plays to keep his team competitive.
