Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Saturday night. While everyone knew that was coming, Favre still expressed disbelief after the announcement.
He made these comments to ESPN.
“I think it’s going to take a while for it to sink in. I’ve done a few interviews and had a little bit of a chance to kind of digest and what I’ll say now is probably what I’ll say for quite a while. I totally get that I’m in the Hall of Fame, but I don’t necessarily accept it. What I mean by that is, after we were introduced on stage here at the Honors, the Hall of Famers past come up and say their congratulations — and there were so many, some I know, some I know of but haven’t met.
