Drew Brees' Blue Diamond Could Sell for Double the Appraised Value

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees believes he was ripped off in a sale involving aย 4.09-carat blue diamond, according to TMZ Sports.

During a deposition for a lawsuit against jewelerย Vahid Moradi, Brees learned that the ring he sold forย $3.75 million could be worth much more.

"Would it surprise you to know that it's being offered right now at a wholesaler's for $6.8 million?"ย Moradi's attorney, Eric George, asked. The price reportedlyย could be more than $10 million at a retail store.

TMZ Sports provided a picture of the ring in question:

The value of the diamond has been in question for years since Brees originally purchased it from Moradi forย $8.1 million in 2015. Another appraiser valued it atย $2 million, but that person later earned a commission on the Brees' sale of the stone for less than half of what he originally paid.

Brees first filed the lawsuit in April against Moradi while claiming the jeweler tricked him into spending $9 million more than the collection he bought was worth.
