Sean Payton said it’s too early in the week to determine whether or not New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will require extra time to heal from a shoulder injury he suffered during Sunday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Ian Rapoport is reporting that Brees could miss several games with the injury.
Sources: #Saints believe QB Drew Brees has a shoulder injury that will likely cause him to miss games, potentially several games.

Brees, 36, has never missed a regular-season game due to injury in his 10 seasons with the Saints since he recovered from major shoulder surgery in 2006.
