Brett Favre Makes Jets Preseason Debut
National Football League Blogcast, NFL Blogcast
Brett Favre looked sharp during two drives (14 plays) in his preseason debut as the starting quarterback of the N.Y. Jets tonight. The Jets would eventually lose the game, 13-10, to the Redskins, but Brett finished his brief evening 5-of-6 passing for 48 yards and a touchdown to tight end Dustin Keller. This is borderline TMI, but here’s a rundown of Brett’s throws:
- 1st pass: 11-yard completion to Jerricho Cotchery
- 2nd pass: 10-yard completion to Chris Baker
- 3rd pass: 4-yard completion to Leon Washington
- 4th pass: Incomplete
- 5th pass: 19-yard completion to Jerricho Cotchery
- 6th pass: 4-yard TD to Dustin Keller
Brett was sacked once. He lasted 14 plays after head coach Eric Mangini said he expected Brett to take 8-12 snaps. Considering Brett has only been in camp a little over a week (his head must still be spinning), I though this was an excellent showing. And I guess with all the coverage I’ve given Brett’s “unretirement” over the past month, it really wasn’t that weird for me to see him in something other than a Packers jersey. I’m already used to it.
