Super Bowl Champion and current NBC Sports Analyst Drew Brees will make a trip to the Rocket City this summer. Brees will serve as a guest at the annual “Leaders and Legends” Dinner. The annual event, which is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Boys & Girls Club of North Alabama, will take place on Wednesday, July 27th at the Von Braun Center.
This fundraising event is critical to the success of the Boys & Girls Club organization, which depends on proceeds from the event to continue its mission to inspire and enable local youth to reach for their potential.

Boys & Girls Clubs in communities across North Alabama provide a safe place to go after school and during the summer for youth ages 5-18. We fill the gap between school and home with life-changing programs, experiences, and mentorship programs that focus on three core areas of development: ACADEMIC SUCCESS / HEALTHY LIFESTYLES / CHARACTER & CITIZENSHIP
Brees, who amassed an unprecedented collection of records, milestones and accolades during a 20-year NFL career as quarterback with the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers, joined NBC Sports in March 2021 and serves as a studio analyst for Football Night in America and game analyst for Notre Dame Football.
He led the Saints to victory in Super Bowl XLIV and was named the game’s MVP. In his career, Brees was selected to 13 Pro Bowls, won two Offensive Player of the Year awards, is the NFL’s all-time leader with 80,358 career passing yards, ranks second all-time with 571 career passing touchdowns and shattered the league record with a touchdown pass in 54 consecutive games.
