New Vikings quarterback Brett Favre will play in Friday's preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs, his mom told McClatchy Newspapers.

Now, word is he'll be starting as well. Cris Carter reported earlier today on ESPN that Favre will be starting Minny's home opener, and others have been saying the same. Earlier, ESPN's Adam Schefter said on ESPNews this could be the case.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen has reported that Favre will sign an official deal with the Minnesota Vikings today pending a physical, and that the deal will be between $10 and $12 million for one year.

PER SOURCE "ESPN INSIDER"

When he throws twice as many INTs as he does TDs this season - his career will be over anyway.

won't happen

He will break the 500 TD passes barrier though. :clap::clap::clap:

Gotta Love Brett-a Real American Hero!!

You've got some nuts on your chin.

well I might be the only one-but I am glad he is back. My fav player since he got traded to the Pack.

I hope he puts the records where the Mangina brothers can't touch them!!!

70,000 passing yards 7000 completions 500 TD's Starting streak, wins as a QB!!

How can people not love this guy-he eats breaths and shit football.

FYP

lol

I really don't think he gives a crap about all that-he just wants to play-and wants to keep doing what he has his whole life. More power to him to tell everyone to fug off-I am doing what I love.

Lets hope he gets another SB and MVP!!

Hell the Vikes have got their money back already!

I hope he throws away another playoff game. That will make me laugh (again).

I agree, and am glad to see him play again

i have a friend at work that hates farve with a passion and he is a vikes fan,he is so pissed off he is spitting nails, will not watch one game this year

Oh he will have a Brett #4 jersey by the end of the year-lol

He is going to have a kickass year. The Vikes look pretty good on paper at least.

I was one of the only ones on here that said he would be back-everyone had him dead a burried-but I knew he hated training camp and with 25 million on the line-he would sign.

I've hated Favre ever since the Strahan flop

I wouldn't mind seeing him take a big hit, but I've never been a fan of wishing injury on a player (joking or not).
