Drew Brees to appear on the 'Late Show' with David Letterman Tuesday


New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will visit the 'Late Show' with David Letterman on Tuesday. This will be Brees' third appearance on the 'Late Show.'


He last visited the broadcast April 22, 2010, when he presented the Top Ten List on the show after being named the cover athlete for the "Madden NFL 10" video game. Also, he appeared earlier that year on Feb. 8 2010, the day after the Saints won Super Bowl XLIV and Brees was named Super Bowl MVP.


Brees is working with the program PACE (Protecting Athletes through Concussion Education), which works with ImPACT, the most widely used and scientifically validated computerized concussion evaluation system. Each year, 3.8 million recreational and sports-related concussions occur in the United States, and many athletes do not understand the potentially dangerous long-term effects concussions can have if not treated properly. Through PACE, up to one million young athletes throughout more than 3,300 middle and high schools nationwide will receive their first-year ImPACT test program and concussion education for free.
