NEW YORK (AP) - Drew Brees might have secured his plans once his playing career has ended.

The New York Post is reporting that Brees will join NBC after he retires. The 41-year old New Orleans Saints quarterback will be going into his 20th NFL season this year.

Brees is expected to begin as an analyst on Notre Dame games and in the studio for 'œFootball Night in America'ť before eventually moving into the 'œSunday Night Football'ť booth.

An NBC spokesman said in an email to The Associated Press: 'œLike all NFL fans, we look forward to watching Drew continue his Hall of Fame career this fall, and we are confident his post-playing career will be just as successful.'ť

Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth have been paired in the Sunday night booth since 2009.
