"Doggy" is one he received in high school because of his tendency to play Snoop Doggy Dogg's music while pulling up in his car at school so it just stuck. As for Hurricane Drew, I think that one is recent and has to do with the fact that he plays for the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans was devastated by a hurricane and it may be a play on that tragedy in an upward attitude stating that instead this time New Orleans has the hurricane that will do devastation to others' teams. That and it may deal with Hurricane Andrew. Andrew is Drew Brees' real name and many know the damage that particular hurricane left behind. These are only the three nicknames I know of. (MORE)
