Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Remembering the failed Brett Favre trade

Yesterday former NFL quarterback Brett Favre posted a picture to his Instagram account hinting at a comeback to the NFL, again. The picture was quickly deleted and the nearly 50-year-old Favre claimed the post was a result of his account being hacked. While this post cannot be true, it did take us down memory lane to the time the Tampa Bay Buccaneers nearly landed Favre in a trade back in 2008.

The Green Bay Packers and Favre were destined for a divorce as they were primed to hand the keys over to first-rounder from three years before, Aaron Rodgers.
