The NFL world is none too pleased with the former Green Bay Packers star, perhaps signified best by a former teammate of his sending out a scathing tweet.
Sage Rosenfels was briefly his teammate when the Hall of Famer joined the Minnesota Vikings in 2009.
Both quarterbacks retired in 2010, the final time Favre retired and actually stuck with it. Rosenfels stated in his tweet that since the two of them have left the NFL, one of them has managed to not commit any crimes like this.
The welfare fund in Mississippi is designed to help those in desperate need. The scam took $5 million from them for a sports stadium that wasn’t exactly necessary, and it’s rumored that the entire wide-reaching scandal diverted about $77 million in total.
According to World Population Review, Mississippi is the poorest state in the United States, with an estimated 18.8% living in poverty, and many of those are the ones that were stolen from.
Rosenfels didn’t call out his former teammate by name, but it’s very clear who he’s talking about and how he feels about them.
Sage Rosenfels isn’t the only former NFL player to brutally roast Brett Favre
Shannon Sharpe may not have played with the legendary quarterback, but he believes he knows what kind of person he is. The news isn’t totally surprising to him, but he blasted the Hall of Famer nonetheless:
He went on to call Favre a “sorry mofo” for stealing from the underserved in the poorest state in America. It’s unclear how much this will affect his legacy, but at least a few former NFL players are fed up with Brett Favre.
