Drew Brees unveils his Hall of Fame bust with assist from Sean Payton
Here it is. Former New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees arrived to the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony with all of the pomp and circumstance it deserved; a custom Mardi Gras-style parade float, dozens of former teammates, and a resplendent gold jacket placed on his shoulders by none other than Joe Montana, the greatest QB of all time. And on Saturday, before he delivered a passionate speech reflecting on his career, Brees unveiled the bronze bust in his image which will be enshrined in Canton, Ohio.And he had an assist from his old Saints coach Sean Payton. It's a great likeness of Brees, including the signature birthmark on his right cheek (which surprised him so much he tried to brush it off). See for yourself:Drew Brees.
