The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, citing a source close to the situation, on Wednesday reported the Packers were considering seeking a Brett Favre deal with one of their rivals, most likely the Minnesota Vikings or Chicago Bears, if all else fails.

Adrian Peterson is trying to become more patient as he begins his second season in the NFL.

The Packers have filed tampering charges against the Vikings alleging that the team made inappropriate contact with Brett Favre, a person familiar with the Packers’ complaint told The Associated Press Wednesday night.

Quarterback Kelly Holcomb, who started three games for the Vikings last season, appears to be finished after twelve seasons in the NFL, according to a report in The Star-Tribune.
