The Facts:
Following up on the ongoing story. ... Favre is in considerable discomfort after he re-injured his surgically repaired left ankle, a source with knowledge of the situation told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora Tuesday, and the QB has consulted with Dr. James Andrews, who performed the offseason operation, for further information. Reported by NFL.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Favre is trying to keep the swelling down, so he's staying off the ankle as much as possible, La Canfora added. Favre hasn't ruled out playing in Sunday's game against the Patriots but a league source told NFL.com senior writer Steve Wyche that Favre's status for Sunday's game could be decided by HC Brad Childress and the team's medical staff. Why do we find it hard to believe anybody but Favre will make this call?
