About Brett Favre

Brett Lorenzo Favre (pronounced /ˈfɑrv/) (born October 10, 1969 in Gulfport, Mississippi) is an American football quarterback for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). He is best known for being the starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers between the 1992 and 2007 NFL seasons. Favre started at the quarterback position for The University of Southern Mississippi for four years before being selected in the second round of the 1991 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons (33rd overall). After one season with the Falcons, Favre was traded to the Green Bay Packers on February 10, 1992 for the 19th pick in the 1992 NFL Draft. He became the Packers' starting quarterback in the fourth game of the 1992 NFL season, starting every game from then until his retirement in 2008. In 2008, Favre came out of retirement, was traded to the New York Jets, and has continued his consecutive start streak.
