It doesn’t matter how quiet ESPN may remain on the topic of Brett Favre, he is still feeling the backlash amid his involvement in Mississippi’s welfare scandal.
Former NFL quarterback Sage Rosenfels, who was teammates with him in Minnesota, took a shot at Brett Favre amid his ongoing welfare-fraud scandal.
“Since retirement, I have been lucky to avoid stealing millions of dollars from the poorest people in my state,” Rosenfels wrote on Twitter.
Rosenfels played for the Vikings in 2009, Favre’s first year in Minnesota.
Last week, Mississippi Today revealed that former Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant helped Favre obtain welfare funds in order to help build a new volleyball center at the University of Southern Mississippi. The report exposed text messages between Bryant and Favre in 2017 and 2019.
Even before this latest scandal, Favre faced multiple lawsuits alleging sexual harassment and sent lewd text messages to sideline reporter Jenn Sterger.
