Growing up, Captain Munnerlyn admits he rooted against the Vikings at least twice a year -- when they played the Green Bay Packers.
The Vikings cornerback was a big fan of Brett Favre, the Packers quarterback from 1992-2007. By the time Favre joined Minnesota for the 2009 and 2010 seasons, Munnerlyn was in the NFL. He played for the Carolina Panthers from 2009-13 before joining the Vikings last season.
"When I was growing up, I was a Green Bay fan and Brett Favre was my favorite player," said Munnerlyn, whose Vikings face the Packers on Sunday at TCF Bank Stadium.
