Drew Brees Getting 'Struck by Lightning' May Have Been a Publicity Stunt
Featured 5 hours ago
Video has gone viral of NFL QB turned analyst, Drew Brees allegedly being struck by lightning filming a commercial for PointsBet sportsbook.
I'll be the first to admit that video does look super staged. But in reality, if Drew Brees got struck by lightning and died, that would truly suck. The story goes that Brees was shooting a commercial...in Venezuela...in the middle of a thunderstorm. Yes this was staged.
We've included the two-part spot. Drew is fine, and we can now move on with our day.
