It was quite a Tuesday for Brett Favre and former New York Jet Mark Gastineau, with footage of the latter against the former from an upcoming ESPN 30 For 30 documentary about Favre letting Michael Strahan break Gastineau’s single-season sack record.
Favre then took to X (formerly Twitter) to “clear the air” with a thread in which he responded to Gastineau and that Favre never intended to hurt the former pass rusher.
And then Terrell Owens entered the fray at X.
The legendary wide receiver had this to say: “While you sort this out, please clear up the misappropriation of the funds you pocketed.” That’s a reference to the Mississippi welfare scandal in which Favre allegedly diverted funds to those in need families were mistakenly forwarded to the University of Southern Mississippi volleyball team. He paid back $1.1 million in speaking fees, but the state is trying to get even more money back.
Ouch.
While you sort this out, please also clear up the misappropriation of the funds you pocketed https://t.co/u4V2a88Yz6
