Fox is hiring Drew Brees as a full-time NFL game analyst and is likely moving on from the embattled Mark Sanchez, The Athletic reported on Wednesday.

Brees, a 13-time Pro Bowl quarterback, joins a lineup featuring Tom Brady and Greg Olsen and will be in the broadcast booth a week from Sunday, per the report.

Exact terms of his deal and specific game assignments are not yet known.

Brees would likely be paired with play-by-play man Adam Amin, who had been working with Sanchez, 38, before the latter’s arrest for battery following an early October altercation in Indianapolis.

Brees, 46, retired from the NFL after the 2020 season and spent the 2021 season with NBC Sports, working as a color analyst for the network’s Notre Dame broadcasts and appearing on “Football Night in America.”

Brees has also done studio work with Fox and ESPN and served as an analyst for Netflix’s international feed last Christmas.

Brees led the New Orleans Saints to a Super Bowl XLIV championship in the 2009 season and was a two-time NFL Offensive Player of the Year. He ranks second behind Brady in NFL history in passing yards (80,358) and touchdown passes (571).
