Favre Claims Groin Will Be Fine
2009-11-11 FFTodayThe latest injury Brett Favre must fight to maintain his record durability streak is a pulled groin muscle. Back from his bye week, Favre said he believes he'll be fine. Favre said he was hurt in practice while rolling out during a drill two weeks ago and aggravated the injury in pregame warmups at Green Bay on Nov. 1. The Vikings didn't play last week, giving their 40-year-old quarterback extra time to heal. "It was a concern for the game. I made it through. With a week's rest I think I'll be fine," Favre said Wednesday. "But I'm not going to make it a bigger issue than it is. It's kind of a new thing for me. To play 18 some-odd years and not have anything like that that probably worried me more than anything. But I think I'll be fine." Favre said the injury bothered him during the Packers game, but "not as bad" as he feared it might. He told coach Brad Childress, offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell and backup quarterback Tarvaris Jackson to be ready in case he couldn't finish the game. (SI.com)

Favre Played With Groin Injury
2009-11-02 FFTodayBrett Favre was limited in practice last week because of what was listed as a hip injury. But the quarterback told Peter King of Sports Illustrated late Sunday night after the Vikings' 38-26 victory over Green Bay, that he actually was battling a groin injury he suffered on Wednesday in practice. Favre said he suffered a pulled or strained groin in that practice and that while there was never any question about if he could play a problem did develop shortly before kickoff. According to King, about an hour before the game, Favre aggravated the muscle during pregame warmups. Favre told King he actually began to wonder if he could play. "I told T-Jack [backup Tarvaris Jackson] and [offensive coordinator] Darrell Bevell I may not be able to do it," Favre said. "I didn't know if I'd be able to drop back very well. After I aggravated it, there was no way I was going to be able to move around in the pocket very much. We never called one bootleg the whole game. But we made it through OK."
