Star Tribune - Brad Childress will be the first to know. And it sounds as if he wants to know soon.
The Minnesota Vikings coach spent Monday in Hattiesburg, Miss., with quarterback Brett Favre, who hasn't decided whether he will return for a 20th NFL season.
Childress has been careful not to issue any deadlines, giving Favre the entire offseason to make up his mind, but training camp opens late next week ... so the clock is ticking.
The two spent a muggy morning at the University of Southern Mississippi's 7-on-7 passing camp for high school players. Asked by Hattiesburg television station WDAM about his visit, Childress said, "You can fill in the blanks."
Favre, who will turn 41 in October, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle in late May. He said last week the condition of his ankle would be the determining factor in whether he comes back.
The expectation is Favre won't report to the Vikings until after the Mankato phase of training camp and the first two exhibition games. If he plays, Favre will make $13 million this season in the second-year of a $25 million contract with the team.
