"Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell visited Brett Favre in Hattiesburg, Miss., last week to watch him throw passes, but it still remains uncertain when the currently retired quarterback will make a decision on playing in Minnesota this season, according to an ESPN.com report Sunday night.
The Star Tribune reported last week that Vikings athletic trainer Eric Sugarman had made a second trip to check on Favre's progress from arthroscopic surgery on his throwing arm, but Bevell's presence wasn't known until Sunday evening. The Star Tribune confirmed Bevell also was on the trip.
That would make Bevell the first member of coach Brad Childress' staff to visit Favre in Mississippi. Bevell watched Favre perform in a rigorous throwing session that included an estimated 100 passes, sources told ESPN.
Favre, according to those sources, felt his performance with the Oak Grove High School team was encouraging. Favre, however, also "warned the Vikings representatives that he might be forced to delay a decision on whether to play until just before the team opens training camp.""
