The Facts:
GM A.J. Smith said Monday the team has declined to designate Brees as its franchise or transition player. The deadline for designating a player with either tag is Thursday. Brees and the Chargers are talking about a multi-year pact. But so far, no agreement has been reached and on March 3, Brees can negotiate with any team.

This announcement
comes as no real surprise. While they clearly hope to keep him, the Chargers are confident they have enough depth to reach the playoffs even if Brees walks. Behind Brees is Philip Rivers, the 2004 draft's fourth overall pick, and veteran A. J. Feeley.
