None of Drew Brees' three sons are New Orleans Saints fans, which, as you'd imagine, can make for some awkward situations.

The Saints quarterback joined Peter King on this week's "MMQB" podcast, and revealed that his oldest son, Baylen, wanted to dress up as New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. last Halloween. Not surprisingly, Brees wasn't keen on the idea at all.

"It was in 2015, before we played the Giants (in New Orleans), and (Baylen) made a big deal about two Newman alums coming back home, Eli Manning and Odell Beckham, Jr., and so, for some reason at that moment it clicked with my son," Brees told King, according to Extra Mustard.

"This was right before Halloween, so he's like, 'I want an Odell Beckham jersey, I wanna be Odell Beckham for Halloween,' and I'm like 'Whoaaa, listen, we play these guys on Sunday, alright. I'm not gonna have my oldest son running around in the other team's jersey. Let's just wait until after this weekend and you can be a fan of whoever you want."

Brees' kids are enrolled at Isidore Newman School in New Orleans, which is the same school Beckham and Manning went to.
