NFL Network Report on Him … You Know… That Guy… Favre

So tired of this shyte. Here’s what NFL Network got from Brett Favre’s agent in regards to reports that the Vikings (ex?) quarterback told his teammates that he’s retiring. I hate this story.

The complete NFL Network story and video of the report is now on NFL.com.

Brett Favre‘s agent, Bus Cook, told NFL Network analyst Steve Mariucci on Wednesday that the quarterback has not made a decision about retirement and that any potential comeback hinges on Favre’s health, not a healthier contract.
“As far as Brett is concerned, in spite of reports to the contrary, Brett’s situation has nothing to do with his contract, but everything to do with his health and ability to contribute to that team and play at a level that he has been accustomed to playing over the years,” Cook told Mariucci. “Brett’s ankle, which needed surgery since 2007, was surgically repaired this last spring by Dr. James Andrews. Until such time, Brett feels he can play at a level that he expects of himself, no decision will be made.

“Brett has an appointment to see Dr. Andrews next week and will know more at that time. Brett continues working every day, rehabbing his ankel and will see after his visit with Dr. Andrews what his status is at that time.”>
