Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has been named one of 25 semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.
The three-time MVP retired with 508 touchdown passes, 71,838 passing yards and 186 NFL victories. Following 16 seasons with the Packers, he finished up with a year in New York (Jets) and two years with the Minnesota Vikings.
Favre was originally drafted by the Atlanta Falcons before being traded to the Packers.
