Report: Childress visits Favre in Hattiesburg
Football Betting Lines
07/19/2010 - Hattiesburg, MS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress reportedly met with Brett Favre on Monday as he tries to gauge if the star quarterback will return for a 20th season in the NFL.
WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg reported Childress and Favre were seen in the morning at the University of Southern Mississippi's 7-on-7 passing camp for area high school athletes.
When asked why he was there, Childress told the TV station, "You can fill in the blanks."
Favre, who turns 41 October 10, has one year left on his contract with the Vikings, but he still hasn't disclosed if he'll be back for a second season in a Minnesota uniform.
In May, Favre confirmed he had a procedure to remove scar tissue and bone spurs from his injured left ankle. He was knocked around during last season's NFC Championship Game loss to New Orleans, needing help to leave the field at one point during the contest.
It's a familiar situation for Favre, who last summer underwent surgery for a partially torn biceps tendon before coming back to play for Minnesota. He was hurt late in the 2008 season with the New York Jets.
Favre has already retired twice -- after the 2007 season with Green Bay and following the 2008 campaign with the Jets.
Last summer, Favre was lured out of his second brief retirement and had one of the best seasons of his career. He threw for 4,202 yards with 33 touchdowns and just seven interceptions. His quarterback rating of 107.2 was second only to New Orleans' Drew Brees.
