Favre: ‘Ankle Is Not Where I Would Like It To Be’

Brett Favre has been rehabbing his ankle in Hattiesburg, MS after having surgery over two months ago. The overwhelming expectation is that Favre will announce sometime in mid-August that he’s returning to the Vikings for the 2010 season but the quarterback insists he hasn’t made up his mind yet.

Part of the reason for the indecision for his ankle rehab, which isn’t going exactly as planned.

“After almost nine weeks, it’s not where I would like it to be, but I’m working at it,” he said. “Maybe it never gets to where I want it to be. Forty years old … three surgeries … that’s all you need to know.”

Ankle or not, Favre will be back. Everyone knows it. He probably knows it. It’s just a matter of when he’ll announce it.
