Brett Lorenzo Favre is only one of the most legendary names in the world of sports. He is an American former professional football player who got his big break as the quarterback in the National Football League (NFL). He has played for teams, such as the Green Bay Packers (where he spent the majority of his career) and the Atlanta Falcons (where he played in 1991).He was selected to play for the Falcons in the second round of the 1991 NFL Draft. And after spending one season with that team he was traded to the Green Bay Packers. In addition, he played for the New York Jets in 2008, and then the Minnesota Vikings from 2009 to 2010. 

The football all star has had quite the successful career, to say the least. Believe it or not, he actually made history by becoming the first NFL quarterback ever to pass for 500 touchdowns, throw for 70,000 yards, complete 6,000 passes, and attempt 10,000 passes.
