Fantasy Impact:

If Brees indeed practices this week, the "goal" would be for a Week 8 return against the Cardinals. However, since the Saints have been winning without the future Hall of Fame signal-caller, plus, the fact that their bye is in Week 9, it may make more sense for the team to hold Brees out until Week 10 to give him the extra time to recover.
