Fans of the New Orleans Saints rejoiced last week with the latest Drew Brees news. Their lifelong idol in the NFL will be inducted into the Saints franchise's Hall of Fame during the 2024 season. The announcement came with an emotional speech from the legendary quarterback and plenty of heartfelt responses on social media from his former teammates.
Marques Colston was Brees' top receiver for nearly a decade. He was a quiet, reserved player that was driven by the offense's impressive success alongside his QB. He kept his head down and dominated, always getting overlooked nationally but never by Saints fans. He posted a great message to Brees after the HOF announcement.

The former wideout notes that Brees set the standard for the Saints. That should come as no surprise as Brees was known for being one of the hardest-working players in football during his pro career. His teammates understood that, especially Colston.
Colston and Brees are the highest-scoring duo in Saints franchise history.
Neither Brees or Colston would have had their impressive career without the other. That aspect of their relationship on the field is quite clear.
Colston was inducted into the New Orleans Saints Hall of Fame alongside Reggie Bush in October of 2019.
There's no doubt that fans will appreciate his post, and Brees did as well. The duo will always have history in black and gold.
