Daddy Brett of Brittany Favre is the first NFL grandfather QB

Brett Favre may not have been able to deliver a Super Bowl victory to Minnesota, but Brett Favre’s daughter Brittany Favre has delivered something even more significant: a baby boy. A new life is always precious, and the birth of Parker Brett adds a precious new accolade to the career of Brett Favre. Assuming he returns to play for the 2010 NFL season, Brett Favre could possibly be the first grandfather ever to lace up spikes in the NFL, according to various sources. It is being disputed but George Blanda might have actually been the first active NFL grandfather.

Brittany Favre is a proud mama, and turns 21 in 2010

Given that Brett Favre guards his family's privacy well, the media doesn't actually have Favre's official reaction. Brett Favre’s daughter cedes the limelight to daddy Brett Favre, who made the following statement to the media (See resource below) regarding Brittany Favre and her son Parker Brett:

“Deanna and I are very proud to welcome our grandchild Parker Brett to the Favre family. Parker Brett was born on Friday, April 2, weighing 7 lb. 7 oz., and we’re pleased to say that both (sic) Mom, Dad and Parker Brett are healthy and doing great.”

Best wishes to Brittany Favre and family

Even though Brittany Favre’s father (and Parker’s grandfather) Brett Favre may annoy some fans with his constant retirement talk, there is no doubt that the grandfather quarterback can definitely still play. Many wonder if he will play long enough to be alongside Parker Brett, but of course that would be almost impossible. Brett is still unsure if he'll even return to the Minnesota Vikings in 2010, or if he's retire to his own business ventures such as paydayloans. He may have won more games than any other starting quarterback in NFL history (181) when he turns 41 in October 2010. Yet the Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder says Brett Favre will likely be back for more (See source below). The publication quotes an unnamed source as saying “I think he (Favre) doesn’t mind trying it again.”

Brittany Favre should probably wait on "trying it again" until Parker Brett is out of diapers. But then again, as a player, Brett Favre never shied from adversity. Maybe this will run in the family. Whatever Favre's daughter may determine, she seems to have a loving family supporting her.
