Heading into the 2018 season
Josh Doctson Jersey , Saints quarterback Drew Brees and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady are tied on the career passing touchdowns list: Both have
thrown exactly 488 touchdowns in their career.
That puts them 51 behind Peyton Manning’s all-time career record of 539, and over the next couple years they’ll race to see which one gets there first.
It’s unlikely that either will break Manning’s record in 2018: Brady’s career high in touchdown passes is 50, and Brees’ career high is 46, so it will
probably be 2019 before either one of them gets to Manning.
But assuming they both play at least two more years and both stay healthy, they should both top Manning’s touchdown mark. They could even find themselves
in a situation where they’re both breaking each other’s record on a regular
basis. That would be reminiscent of the 1983 Major League Baseball
season
Terrance Williams Jersey , when pitchers Nolan Ryan and Steve Carlton both broke the previous career strikeout record, and then proceeded to trade the lead
back and forth 14 times over the course of that season.
The Brees-Brady touchdown race might just become the hottest story in the NFL, but probably not until 2019.
The Kansas City Chiefs will be without starting safety Daniel Sorensen for the start of the season after he had surgery to repair a broken shin bone and
damage to his left knee.
Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder described the injury Saturday as a tibial plateau fracture, which involves the upper part of the shin. Sorensen also
damaged his medial collateral ligament and tore his meniscus when he was hurt
during a special teams drill last week.
“One of the guys fell on his leg,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said.
The injury is similar to the one suffered by J.J. Watt last year
Rafael Bush Jersey , causing the Texans defensive end to miss the rest of the season. That may be Sorensen’s fate, too, but Burkholder said the Chiefs plan to
wait six weeks before evaluating him again.
“He’ll be up here today starting his formal rehab with us,” Burkholder said.
Sorensen became an invaluable part of the Kansas City secondary when Eric Berry went down with a season-ending injury last year. He went on to start 14 of
the 15 games he played, picking off a pass and piling up 88 tackles while
assuming a leadership role in the Chiefs’ secondary.
Berry is back from his torn Achilles tendon
Reggie Wayne Jersey , and Sorensen was expected to start alongside him this season. Now, the race is on during the final three weeks of camp for a
starting job, with rookie Armani Watts, Leon McQuay and Eric Murray among those
who could slide into the role.
The Chiefs also announced that Dillon Gordon had been placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury, and that fellow offensive lineman Alex Officer
had been signed to take his place.
Running back Charcandrick West returned to the practice field Saturday after missing more than a week with a concussion
Nate Hairston Jersey , while linebacker Dee Ford left early with an illness.
Tanoh Kpassagnon and rookie Breeland Speaks split his first-team reps the rest of the way.
