Sneeky Favre Tried To Trick Packers

In a story from Jay Glazer of Fox Sports, Jets quaterback Brett Favre has been selling out his former team, the Green Bay Packers, at different occasions this year.

In week two, instead of focusing on the New England Patriots, Favre spent over an hour on the phone with coaches from the Detroit Lions telling them how to game plan and beat up the Packers.

"Other teams the Packers have played had also heard about the Favre coaching clinic with Detroit. In addition, there have been rumors that Favre has spoken to other teams giving them information, but most of those teams insist they have not heard from the famed gunslinger." (Glazer). READ GLAZER's Blog.

The Lions lost to Green Bay 48-25 in week two, while Favre and the Jets played uninspired football in a 19-10 loss to New England.

It is not against league rules for insider's information to be shared; still, it is a sneaky move by Favre who is not known for being one to hold a grudge. Could Favre's grudge be clouding his focus with the Jets? Maybe, maybe not. We will never know.
