First Brett Favre retired and left the Green Bay Packers only to return to the game as the quarterback for the New York Jets.
Now Favre says he's retired again (his statement claims he is retired "at this time"), but reports indicate he may jump ship to Minnesota.
Per SI.com, Vikings coach Brad Childress would not directly state that his team was pursuing Favre, but he did say they wouldn't rule out the possibility.
"We haven't. It doesn't mean we won't," Childress said. "We talk about everything, from what's going on in the United States on the front page today. ... So, yeah, I'm sure we'll talk about that."
Favre's private jet was also spotted in Minneapolis this week, leading to speculation that the veteran quarterback may be in talks about joining the Vikings.
The Twitterverse reacted to the possibility of Favre returning to the game once again for a different team:
