Brett Favre Speculation Heating Up This Week

Brett Favre

Favre Watch 2010 is about to go into overdrive.

With the Minnesota Vikings less than three weeks away from opening training camp, all eyes are on Brett Favre who is yet to announce his intentions for the 2010 season.

Favre Watch is about to hit overdrive as the 40-year-old quarterback will attend the ESPY Awards next Wednesday according to Judd Zulgad of the Star Tribune (via PFT).

It’s highly unlikely that ESPN will let an opportunity such as this pass by without doing a daily update on SportsCenter about Favre’s future.

Once ESPN runs with a story all other outlets (including this one) will cover their coverage at a feverish pace. One needn’t look any further than LeBron James to know what I’m talking about.

The general consensus around the league right now is that Favre will be back in the saddle for the Vikings. He underwent the necessary ankle procedure to be able to play this season and he has also been working out with Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell.

So, to get a firm answer on whether or not Favre will play this season we turned to the Magic 8 Ball.

Its response: “All signs point to yes.”
