Andy Reid taught Brett Favre a simple trick that changed the way he read NFL defenses

On Thursday, the gunslinger himself, Brett Favre, made an appearance on seasoned NFL writer Peter King’s podcast to discuss his career, life, and 50th birthday. In between talks about how he used to swim with gators as a kid in Mississippi to biking 25 miles a day, he also discussed some of the best advice he received during his tenure in Green Bay.

The conversation started when King asked Favre what advice he would give to second-year NFL quarterback Sam Darnold. Favre then shared a trick that may explain some of that gunslinger magic he so often displayed.
