Drew Brees Breaks Peyton Manning’s Career Touchdown Record

Drew Brees Breaks Peyton Manning’s
Career Touchdown Record.
Drew Brees recently made NFL history
on Dec. 16 in the New Orleans Saints
victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
A five-yard touchdown pass to Josh Hill in
the third quarter marked the 40-year-old
quarterback’s 540th career touchdown. .
Brees now has more touchdown throws, excluding
playoff games, than Peyton Manning, who previously
held the record with 539 touchdowns.
Brees also registered a 96.7
completion percentage during the
game, breaking the record for best
single-game completion percentage. .
When asked about the historic moments following
the game, Brees said there was “still work to be done.”.
It's hard to fully reflect on it because I know
there's still work to be done. And my focus is
very much on the goals that this team has set
for ourselves … But when it's all said and done,
I think I'll be able to look back even more and
just be so appreciative, Drew Brees, via ESPN.
Tom Brady of the New England
Patriots offered his congratulations
to Brees following the game, saying
he “couldn’t be more deserving.”.
Congrats drew!! Couldn’t be more deserving.
Passing Peyton in anything is an incredible
achievement and your records will be
tough to beat!, Tom Brady, via Twitter
