According to multiple reports, Brett Favre has told the Minnesota Vikings that he will not be returning to play next season. An ESPN.com report tells us that Favre sent text messages saying "This is it" to his Vikings teammates. Having played only one season with the Vikings, fourty-year-old Favre says that his ankle is not recovering from surgery as well as he had hoped for. Neither the Vikings nor Favre have confirmed these reports, but sources say that an official statement might be given later on Tuesday. So is this the end of Brett Favre's illustrious career? Well, even if the reports are true that Favre has announced his retirement, there still might be hope that this NFL great may change his mind yet again. After all, this 3-time NFL MVP has retired twice already and has returned from retirement twice already. Undoubtedly one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, Favre had one of his best seasons last year, with career highs in multiple statistical categories. He also led the Vikings to an NFC Conference Championship Game. Unfortunately, during that game, he suffered an ankle injury for which he received surgery in May. And now that surgery may be the thing that finally ends Favre's amazing career. (Sources: ESPN.com, FOXSports.com, the Associated Press)
