EDEN PRAIRIE, Minnesota (BNO NEWS) — Quarterback Brett Favre signed with the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday, the team announced. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“We believe adding a player such as Brett Favre to our mix will be a strong positive for this football team,” said Head Coach Brad Childress. “As we have conveyed before, his unique knowledge of our system, the NFC North and his innate skills make this a rare opportunity. We felt there was a brief window to reconsider the possibility and we owed it to the organization to evaluate our options. After thorough discussion, the same variables that made this a unique and positive situation previously, still exist. Now, our attention turns to getting to work as a team, our next practice and preparing for the season.”
