GREEN BAY, Wis. - Brett Favre is considering coming out of retirement, according to an ESPN report.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen said Wednesday a Green Bay Packers source told him the 38-year-old Favre told coach Mike McCarthy in the past two weeks that he has the itch to play.

The Packers' former quarterback retired March 6 after a 17-year career.

Cornerback Al Harris said on ESPN's NFL Live that Favre also made similar comments to him.

"I know he has the itch to come back and play," Harris said. "If he will or not, I don't know."

The Packers had planned to use Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback for the upcoming season.

"Aaron is our quarterback," Harris said. "Brett's retired. But if he wanted to come back, there would be some guys who wouldn't mind it. I would welcome him back with open arms."

Mortensen also said his source told him the Packers would be reluctant to open the door for Favre because "Brett retired for the right reasons, even though I know his family is tugging on him (to play)."

A message left with the Packers was not immediately returned.

Favre has two years left on his contract at an average of about US$12.5 million per season. The Packers placed him on the reserve-retired list in the spring so his salary does not now count toward the cap.

Favre's commitment to retirement has been questioned since his announcement. That talk resumed in mid-June when Favre withdrew from the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship at Lake Tahoe, scheduled for July 11-13.

Tournament spokesman Steve Griffith said then that Favre had to miss the event because of a scheduling conflict.

When he retired, a teary Favre said, "I've given everything I possibly could give to this organization, the game of football, and I don't think I've got anything left to give And that's it. I know I can play. But I don't think I want to."

But less than two months later, he told reporters he might be open to returning if Rodgers was injured.

Favre is the NFL's only three-time MVP and leads the league with 442 touchdown passes, 61,655 yards passing and 160 career victories. He started 253 consecutive regular-season games, more than any other quarterback in history. Including the playoffs, his streak stands at 275.

Now that would be frigin awesome :thumbsup

He should have retired 5 years ago

I like brett, but not when he plays the Bears..

....he shd stay retired..

you fucker, I read this shit this morning and thought it was actually an announcement... I FUCKIN HATE YOU!

that would be fucking badass, i love that guy

I like how retards post RUMOR as it was FACT.

Favre was reached on Wednesday by Mississippi's Sun Herald newspaper and tried to calm the storm.

"It's all rumor," he said of reports that he wants to return.

As for the ensuing media storm surrounding the story, Favre said in a text message to the newspaper: "No reason for it."

He should definitely come back for 1 or 2 seasons (his last season was simply too good to retire after).

I wonder why he had that little retirement press conference to begin with? He was one interception away from going to the super bowl. It's not like the team was going to be dismantled in the off season.

Good for him! He shouldn't come back. He needed to leave, while he could be remembered at his best.

It's local news for me. His brother Scott was live on Milwaukee Tv this evening and he said it was not a rumor. Brett has talked to the coach about returning. He also asked to be released if the Packers decide to move ahead without him,opening the door for him to play elsewhere.

Um ok his bother says it's not a rumor the man himself says it is. Gee who's word do you take?

Ok here's a scenario

Minte's brother: "Minte likes to fuck goats in the ass."
Minte: "I do not like to fuck goats in the ass."

Using YOUR logic you like to fuck goats in the ass.

And your logic is to go with an article in a mississippi newspaper.
So here's the scenario. A Missippi newspaper or the mans brother,live on television 2 hours ago.
