The Facts:
After greeting a visitor at St. Vincent's Hospital three days ago, Brees wanted to make clear that his rehabilitation is three weeks ahead of schedule. Since that day marked three weeks since the surgery to repair the torn labrum in Brees' throwing shoulder, quick math indicates he is cutting his projected recovery in half. "There are guys that get hurt and wait for (the recovery) to happen," said physical therapist Kevin Wilk. "He's making it happen."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Wilk, one of the country's top specialists in the rehabilitation of shoulders, supported Brees' contention that his advanced early progress bodes well for the ultimate recovery. ... Brees won't be ready to throw until the end of April, but these early reports are certainly very good news -- unless you happen to be Phillip Rivers.
