Brett Favre listed as questionable against Cardinals

Favre dragged down by Tucker

After twisting his ankle on Monday night in the game against San Diego, where the Jets lost 48-29,  Favre was listed as questionable on Friday, but is still expected to start against the Arizona Cardinals according to Dennis Waszak’s article. Favre holds a record for starting 256 consecutive games and is at risk of losing that streak if his injury persists. His ankle seemed to hold up in the tight wrapping during practice on Friday and his coach Eric Mangini said “I felt pretty comfortable a few days ago. He hasn’t missed many games in the last however many years.”
Favre practiced in the new fieldhouse for the first time on Friday along with the rest of the team, going through light drills with the other quarterbacks and wide receivers. He was listed as limited at practice yet again for the third day in a row but his limp has decreased significantly since Monday.
The 38-year-old is supported by his coach who stated “We’ll progress as he progresses,” on Saturday.
