Brett Favre's streak of 291 consecutive starts may come to an end this weekend, whether he likes it or not.The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported that Vikings coach Brad Childress is leaning toward starting Tarvaris Jackson at quarterback this Sunday, even though Favre wants and is planning to play despite fractures in his left ankle.
Favre was on the field for drills on Friday for the first time this week. He had tape on his left ankle, threatening his ability to play on Sunday at New England.
Favre threw a few easy passes in warmups, but he didn't roll out or take any deep dropbacks while reporters were allowed to watch. At one point, someone tossed a ball Favre's way as he lightly jogged up the field and he was nimble enough to make a stutter-step catch after a slight jump.
Childress is scheduled to address reporters after Friday's practice, when the team must submit the final injury report of the week and list Favre as either probable, questionable, doubtful or out against the Patriots.
