Impacts: Favre will be facing his old team for the first time on Monday night. He signed with the Vikings this season. He spent 16 seasons with the Packers.

QB Sanchez On Jets' Injury Report

Source (fftoday.com) (QB - min) | 0 comments.

With Tendinitis In Knee, But Will Play

Mark Sanchez has a "little tendinitis" in his right knee, according to Rex Ryan. But Sanchez was added to the Jets' injury report Thursday because there's no such thing as a little injury to a quarterback. The Jets learned that the hard way with the Brett Favre fiasco. Sanchez practiced fully, according to the team, and will start Sunday against the Titans. Nevertheless, in the wake of the heavy fines imposed by the NFL for failing to report Favre's arm injury last season, the Jets weren't about to omit Sanchez - especially after a reporter noticed him fussing over his knee during the portion of practice open to the media. After practice, Ryan announced that his $50 million rookie was on the injury report. "Make sure he's on that list," he told reporters after practice, drawing a few laughs. "I don't mean anything by that. It's just a little thing, so we're going to put him on there." During a light passing drill at the start of practice, Sanchez kept reaching down to his knee, flexing it a few times. In between throws, he jogged lightly, making exaggerated cuts to test the knee. A trainer checked it out, rubbing the knee and placing a thin elastic band on it. This went on for several minutes. "It's not that big of a deal, but he has something," Ryan said. "I don't know how to describe it (other than) to say it's a little tendinitis. But he's fine. He fully participated and he moved around great. We're making sure we're looking after him." (The NY Daily News)

FF Today's Take: Knee injuries have been known to linger and the Jets likely hope their bye week was earlier than week 9, so that they could rest their 2-0 rookie QB. It should help that the Haynesworth-less Titans have had trouble stopping QBs this year, as their pass defense ranks last in the league with an average of 339 passing yards allowed per game thus far.

He was hit by two defenders in the fourth quarter during a touchdown pass to Percy Harvin. Favre got up and grimaced, glancing down at his hand and shaking it a few times before heading to the sideline. He didn't return with the Vikings up 27-10. Coach Brad Childress said Monday, however, that Favre is fine.

However, now we know that we may hear after the season that he didn't want to play through the "injury." Whether or not he decides to bring it up, though, will depend on how many interceptions he throws in the next few weeks.

Favre has been selected one of five captains for the Vikings this season.

Impacts: Favre has been with the team for less than a month, but apparently has already made enough of an impression to be elected a captain by his teammates. Favre signed with the Vikings on Aug. 18 and has been working ever since to get up to speed with his teammates on the field and earn their trust in the locker room. He addressed the team on Monday, saying he felt the need to let them know personally that he ended his second retirement for the right reasons.

The St. Paul Pioneer-Press is reporting that Tarvaris Jackson, not Sage Rosenfels, will be the backup to Brett Favre this weekend. Coach Brad Childress said that the backup could change from week to week.

Our View: Jackson looks like he will get the nod if anything should happen to Golden Brett, but obviously this doesn't mean he has any fantasy value. Rosenfels is still the more reliable option for the Vikes, so we will have to see who actually plays if Favre would go down.

Jets' GM Mike Tannenbaum confirmed on Thursday that he and the organization were aware of the injury to Brett Favre's shoulder last season but did not list him on the injury report, according to the Newark Star-Ledger. The Jets will likely face a fine or other punishment from the league for their actions.

Favre "May Not" Be Able To Play All 16

Source (fftoday.com) (QB - min) | 0 comments.

Vikings' QB Willing To Sit

Brett Favre insists he won't let his durability streak hurt the Vikings. The quarterback will make his 270th consecutive start when Minnesota plays at Cleveland on Sunday. That will match what the NFL considers the longest streak in history, set by former Vikings defensive lineman Jim Marshall from 1961 to 1979.Favre said Wednesday he "absolutely" would sit out this season if he's not healthy enough to suit up as Minnesota's quarterback. The 39-year-old also said he "may not" be able to play in all 16 regular-season games. Favre said he was willing to sit last year with the New York Jets and that he shared his concerns at the time with his coaches. His poor performance in December was due in part to his injured right arm. (NFL.com)

FF Today's Take: Despite still being considered a starting quarterback, one glance at Favre's stats shows that he's been on the decline for years. The former fantasy stud's age plus the fact that he's coming off surgery to repair his passing shoulder could spell an end to his consecutive games' streak at some point this season.

According to the Associated Press, Brett Favre has admitted that he may not be able to play in all 16 games this season.

Our View: The Iron Man's streak may come to an end. In all likelihood, it probably will. Favre is almost 40, has a torn rotator cuff and injured his ribs this preseason. He apparently was willing to sit out last year while with the Jets, but never did. Expect him to follow through on it this season. He will start his 270th consecutive game on Sunday, but count on seeing Sage Rosenfels make a start or two.
