We discussed a number of topics not related to football, including Brett's long-term relationship with the Packers," Murphy said in a statement. "I consider our conversation to be confidential and am going to be respectful of Brett and his family and keep the details private."

Cook subsequently told ESPN it's highly unlikely Favre will be quarterbacking the Packers this season. "He would love to go back to Green Bay," Cook said. "Right now, it looks like he'll be the quarterback at Oak Grove High School (where Favre has been working out). ..." It is safe to say we'll have more on this one in coming days.
