After the media burst into crazy reports on Brett Favre’s surgery that was reported to be done on Friday morning, the Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress has been somewhat silent. He did not return any message to requests for the surgery’s indication, but did tell some friends that it was still too early to make any conclusion at the moment.
Earlier reports said that Favre’s doctor suggested the quarterback to have an ankle surgery before wearing back his Vikings jersey to play football again. However, Favre denied that the surgery would determine his decision on return or retire. However, on the day prior to the surgery Favre bet with his Alma Mater’s baseball team the Golden Eagles on the team’s playoff appearance. He said if the Golden Eagles managed to get a pass for the College World Series, he would return to NFL for his 20th season. Linking that bet with the surgery, a lot of people believe that Favre was actually indicating his possible career resuming.
However, Childress still insisted that he and the Vikings would wait for Favre’s final decision and would not push him even after the surgery. Indeed, the 40-year-old veteran, who is turning 41 in October, definitely needs more time for recovery than young players. He can still reserve his right to make a late decision.
