FAVRE EYES RETURN TO NFL

-

Just when you thought Brett

Favre was officially retired. Now it seems No. 4 might be considerin­g a return to the NFL, though not to resume his playing career. During an ESPN Radio interview Thursday in Wisconsin, the Hall of Fame quarterbac­k admitted he has mulled becoming a general manager or coach in the league. “That type of stuff has crossed my mind,” Favre said on ESPN Wisconsin’s Wilde & Tausch show. “It’s being involved in the game in some aspect.” Favre, who spent 16 of his 20 profession­al seasons with the Green Bay Packers, retired after the 2010 campaign. He has kept a fairly low profile since, doing some media work and serving as an assistant for the Oak Grove High School (Hattiesbur­g, Miss.) football team. “I would say, I’d never say never. I believe that would be a dream job, working as a coach there or in some form of administra­tion,” Favre said. “I don’t know, and I don’t want to create a stir, because who knows?”
