Edward asked in SportsFootball (American) · 1 decade ago

Can Brett Favre meet with other teams while he's retired?

If just to gauge any trade interest? Or do the Packer still own his exclusive rights even as a retired player?

    Even though he's retired,they still have exclusive rights to him.

    The rules don't actually prevent HIM from talking to other teams though.They prevent other teams from talking with him without the Packers permission.

    Any time another team is involved in talks with a player that another team has the rights to without first getting permission,the violation/punishment is against the team,not the player.

    The charges? WTF?????????????????? in the event that they'll retire Favre's 4, why do no longer they only flow on forward and retire Elway's 7, Montana's sixteen, Staubach's 12, Unitas's 19, Starr's 15, and youthful's 8 at the same time as they're at it!!! Morons.

    His contract with the Packers only prevents him from signing with other teams. He can talk to any team he wants.

    He already has. Which is why he started looking at coming back. He wants another Ring. And he wants to go out, like John Elway did. But what do I know? I'm only a VIKING FAN!!

    He can talk to whomever he chooses, but is still under contract and cannot go elsewhere unless he is released or traded. As long as he is under contract, he needs to stay in Green Bay
