Saints quarterback Drew Brees will start against the Cowboys in Week 4.
New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will start against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, the team announced Friday.
Brees, who missed the team's Week 3 loss to the Carolina Panthers, injured his shoulder during the second quarter of a Week 2 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Brees was diagnosed with a bruised rotator cuff, and missed his first regular season game in 10 seasons with the Saints.
In two starts this season, Brees has completed just under 63% of his passes, going 54-for-86 with 610 yards and two touchdowns.
The winless Saints (0–3) will host the Cowboys on Sunday at 8:30 p.m. ET.
