Brett Favre’s Arm Still Has Some NFL Throws Left
Steve Stricker brought out the big guns earlier this weekend before they teed off at the American Family Championship in Madison. Brett Favre, Derek Jeter and Darius Rucker were all a part of the experience. Obviously, the fans were most excited to see the former Packers quarterback who made a rare appearance in Wisconsin, and one of his first since his trips up to Green Bay two years ago. Favre tossed a ball to the crowd, and it looked like he threw to a wide receiver at Lambeau Field.

You have to think a couple of NFL teams saw that video this weekend and asked the Hall Famer about a tryout in July, right? I love the fact that the former Packers great knows he can still play. It’s so beautiful because it’s true. If you listen to a Favre interview these days, he explains that the athletic part can still happen yet his body would be a complete mess for a week after a game.
Hope Favre can sling it like this until he’s 80.
