Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Favre said it could be a similar injury or the rotator cuff -- shaved during the previous surgery -- could be damaged. Favre discussed the pain with Vikings doctors but they have not been involved in his recovery from that injury and aren't familiarity with its history or Favre's treatment of it. ... Favre, who has started an NFL-record 294 consecutive games, told reporters twice earlier in the season that he would be willing to sit out of a game if the pain from two other injuries became overwhelming.
