Vikings still waiting for Favre's decision

Brett Favre is still mulling his NFL future, the quarterback's agent Bus Cook told ESPN.

Some reports projected Favre would reach a decision by Friday on whether he would sign with the Minnesota Vikings or stay retired, and while Cook told ESPN "he could," Cook added, "I think he's more likely to wait until the beginning or middle of next week."

Cook said that in a conversation with Favre on Friday morning, Favre was still considering all the mental and physical factors that would go into playing a long season as he turns 40 years old.

Cook also noted that before Favre can sign a contract, he would have to apply for reinstatement with the league. That can be handled in a letter faxed to the NFL offices, but it has not happened yet.
