As several of you who with better memories than me have pointed out, the question of whether retired “at this time” quarterback Brett Favre will play for the Vikings might never become relevant, based on the past comments of the guy who signs the checks in Minnesota by starting with a “Z.”In February, owner Zygi Wilf [...]

Jets | Favre asked for unconditional release twice
Dave Hutchinson, of The Star-Ledger, reports following the NFL Draft, free-agent QB Brett Favre (Jets) asked the New York Jets for his unconditional release for a \"second time,\" according to a source. With QB Mark Sanchez in the fold, Favre figured he could force the team\'s hand and gain his release. The Jets didn\'t want any \"Favre drama\" hanging over their heads with Sanchez trying to find his way. If Sanchez struggled during training camp, for instance, the club didn\'t want the specter of a possible return by Favre hanging over their heads. Although the Jets didn\'t have to grant Favre his wish, they had nothing to gain by holding onto him and trying to get some compensation if a team wanted to sign him. They felt a mid-round draft pick was not worth the headache.

News: Brett Favre was released from the reserve-retired list by the Jets on Tuesday night, making the quarterback a free agent if he decides to again come out of retirement. The 39-year-old Favre, who spent one disappointing season with New York, had requested the move several weeks ago through agent Bus Cook, but insisted he has no plans to come out of retirement for a 19th season. When Favre was dealt to New York from Green Bay in August, there were conditions in the trade that required the Packers to be compensated if the Jets moved the three-time MVP. Those no longer apply if he signs elsewhere. "Nothing has changed," Favre said in a statement. "At this time, I am retired and have no intention of returning to football." [...]
