Brett Favre Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre is expected to miss a total of three practices, one today and two tomorrow as he attends the funeral of a in-law.

Rocky Byrd, the second husband of Favre's mother-in-law, died of a heart attack on Saturday in Mississippi. 

Favre missed practice Sunday morning while he attended to family issues.  He's expected to leave for Mississippi this morning and return on Wednesday night. 

Rocky Byrd was close to Brett, often times catching passes for Favre's offseason throwing program.
