WCCO sports anchor: Favre will be at camp

Jun 24, 2009

Brett Favre's agent denied another report this evening that the QB has agreed to a contract with the Vikings.

Two days after the website Pro Football Talk reported that a deal was in place and that the club had approved the production of Favre jerseys, WCCO provided a similar report with a few minor differences, namely that the QB's contract includes "heavy incentives."

Asked in an e-mail if there was any truth to the WCCO report, agent Bus Cook wrote one word: "Nope."

Cook did not elaborate.

That, however, meshes with what he told the Pioneer Press on Sunday, when asked about Pro Football Talk's report.

Longtime WCCO sports anchor Mark Rosen reported that Favre would be at training camp, barring a "major physical setback."

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
