We know a bit about this story. How Brett Favre got traded from the Atlanta Falcons to the Green Bay Packers.
It’s an interesting tale.
The Falcons drafted Favre early in the second round (No. 33) of the 1991 draft. After a single season, they sent him to the Packers for a first-round draft pick.
There wasn’t a clear path for Favre to get on the field with the Falcons, who had Pro Bowl quarterback Chris Miller. Coach Jerry Glanville hated him and Favre’s hard-partying lifestyle was already becoming evident.
Packers general manager Ron Wolf coveted Favre.
