Fantasy Impact:

There's optimism that Brees' recovery time would be 2-3 weeks. However, a lot of variables are at play. Healing time as well as being able to withstand the physical demands of being hit without the possibility of re-injury are at play. The team is hopeful he's back in time for the playoffs. With Brees out, Jameis Winston instantly joins the conversation as a streaming option or starter in Super-FLEX formats.
