Brett Favre told Minnesota Vikings officials on Monday night that he will not play in the 2010 season, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune and Fox Sports reported.
Favre, 40, who has consistently said throughout the offseason that he was unsure if he’d play this season, is expected to make a public statement later today, the paper said.
The Vikings have not commented on Favre’s status on Tuesday. Fox Sports reported that the Vikings hope Favre will change his mind. ESPN reported that Favre has been sending text messages to teammates in the past day.
