New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton said he has not decided if quarterback Drew Brees will play in Friday's preseason game against the Tennessee Titans.

Brees did not suit up for the team’s preseason opener last week against the St. Louis Rams after being limited by a left oblique injury. He has been held out of practice for the past few weeks, but was seen wearing full pads during the team’s practice on Tuesday.
