Former longtime New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees is eyeing a possible return to a broadcast booth.

Brees spent one NFL season with NBC but left because he said he wanted to spend more time with his family.

"I definitely feel like I walked away with a pretty good skill set if I choose to go back and do it," Brees said during an appearance on the AP Pro Football Podcast. 

If the 13-time Pro Bowl QB does come back to broadcasting, he said he would be interested in doing something similar to ESPN's "ManningCast."

The alternative broadcast features brothers Peyton and Eli Manning providing their unique commentary while watching "Monday Night Football."

Oftentimes, the Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks are joined by celebrity guests and athletes. Past guests have included Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Snoop Dogg, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson and Stephen Curry.

"I think the world by which the fans consume the game is also changing. I think you see a lot of these alternative broadcasts that are taking place. It’s really kind of an interesting way to watch the game and hear the game and learn about the game," Brees told the Associated Press in reference to "ManningCast."
