Former star quarterback Drew Bledsoe lives down in Oregon...but he stops by his hometown of Walla Walla every once in awhile.

On Friday night, Bledsoe was back in town to be honored by the school.

He received the school's professional athlete alumni award during halftime of Friday's basketball game.

But he also took some time to sign autographs and visit with fans.

A lot of people asked him about the Super Bowl ring he won back in 2002.

And since he is a quarterback that's played in the big game, we asked him what he thought about this year's super bowl quarterbacks, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees.

Bledsoe said, "They're both just absolutely great players, very accurate, smart, great leaders, so, it'll be fun to watch them both play. I'm a big Drew Brees fan so I'd like to see the Saints win, Peyton's already got his ring,so I'd like to see them get one for the city of New Orleans."
