‘Banana Brees’: Former Saints QB Drew Brees and Tyler Shough take in Savannah Bananas

  • Panel rules NFL teams didn’t collude on QB deals

  • On Sunday, the Super Bowl XLVIII-winning quarterback put on a uniform for the Savannah Bananas for their matchup against the Party Animals at Yankee Stadium.

    Wilson, who last suited up in the NFL for the New York Giants in 2025, got a chance at the plate for the Bananas. He stepped in during the bottom of the fifth inning, and with one strike on the count, connected the bat with the ball. A piece of the bat broke as he sprinted to first base, but his bouncer to first was turned into a trick play to end the inning.

    In the end, Wilson didn’t get a win with the Bananas. The Party Animals walked away with a 7-2 victory, giving the Bananas their second loss of the year.

    Wilson, 37, was benched in Week 4 last season and is now an unrestricted free agent. In January, he told reporters he’s “not blinking” and plans to continue playing in the NFL.

    Wilson threw for 831 yards and three touchdowns in 2025 with the Giants.
