Brett Favre Jersey Retirement: Details, Comments, Reaction to Packers Ceremony

On Thanksgiving night, the Green Bay Packers honored former quarterback Brett Favre, holding a ceremony for his retired No. 4 jersey during halftime at Lambeau Field against the Chicago Bears.

Favre, who has already been inducted to the team Hall of Fame and had his jersey retired back in July, got another opportunity to thank Packers fans for their support. The Green Bay faithful got the chance to return the favor, even if their support wavered toward the end of his career after a stint with the Minnesota Vikings.
