http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3509944Source: Favre forces Packers' hand, files for reinstatement
Consider the Packers backed up against their own goal line.
Brett Favre followed through on his statements that he wanted to come out of retirement by faxing his reinstatement letter to the NFL on Tuesday, a source close to the quarterback told ESPN's Chris Mortensen.
Favre's actions now force Packers general manager Ted Thompson to make a decision. Favre told Mortensen on Sunday that the GM had pleaded with the quarterback not to show up at camp on Sunday, so that the situation could be resolved.
