Favre: arm ‘isn’t good enough’
Brett Favre worked out with a high school football team Wednesday, then said his arm wasn’t yet ready for him to commit to joining the Vikings.
Favre was interviewed by WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg, after throwing to players from Oak Grove High School during offseason workouts. He had arthroscopic surgery on a partially torn biceps tendon in his right shoulder on May 22, performed by Dr. James Andrews, and said he felt some pain on Wednesday.
“Dr. Andrews said more or less four weeks you should know if (surgery) was completely successful,” Favre said. “I threw a couple of balls today where I really felt it . . . different places in my shoulder where it’s sore.
“I threw the ball OK, but OK isn’t good enough in the National Football League. At least not for me. So it’s got to get better.”
Favre didn’t give a deadline for is decision, but seemed to indicate it wouldn’t be long.
