Sources told FOXSports.com that Favre has told teammates that he will not come back for his 20th season, citing wear and tear on his body. The Star Tribune in Minneapolis reported that Favre told Vikings officials a similar message Monday night.
But the team is still holding out hope that Favre will again change his mind, and considering his history, it's entirely possible. Sources close to the situation have also told FOXSports.com that the team may be prepared to offer Favre more money, in addition to more time, in an effort to get him to reconsider his latest decision.
Favre was under contract for $13 million this season, but only if he plays.
Speaking to reporters after practice Tuesday, Vikings head coach Brad Childress wouldn't confirm Favre's status with the team, saying it was a "fluid situation" and he could very well have a fresh message from the quarterback waiting for him.
"I'm not a big hearsay person," Childress said. "I gotta hear it from the horse's mouth."
Let's play 'wait n see' until we hear from the MAN himself.
