FILE - This Sept. 12, 2019 file photo shows Hoda Kotb at the Save the Children's "The Centennial Gala: Changing the World for Children" in New York. Kotb's emotions got the better of her on the “Today" show Friday as she concluded a segment with New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who is donating money to help with the outbreak of coronavirus there. “Drew, we love ya,” Kotb said.
