The Facts:
When Favre turns in his retirement papers, the Green Bay Packers will strike $11.4 million from payroll and quite possibly lead the National Football League in available salary cap room. Favre has not yet filed his official papers, however, and it's unclear when he will.

Agent James "Bus" Cook said he had no idea where Favre was in the process of filing the paperwork that would finalize his retirement. GM Ted Thompson, however, said he had no concerns about the fact the papers had not been filed and was letting Favre handle that at his own discretion. "We don't need the cap room," Thompson said of the delay. Current estimates have the team at $21.15 million beneath the cap. When they add the total from Favre's retirement, they'll be $32.55 million below the cap.
