These are some of the achievements of one Brett Favre. All of these he achieved in a Greenbay Packer uniform. He retired, unretired and then the unthinkable happened – he got traded. 

You heard me right. 

Brett Favre was traded to the New York Jets. 

Five months after he gave a tearful goodbye to a Hall of Fame career, Favre is now part of a Jets team which went 4-12 last season. A Jets team that has gone through 15 QB starters since Brett Favre started his consecutive starts streak that began on Sept. 27, 1992.

The Jets are hoping Favre can bring them some of the magic he created at Lambeau Field. They hope hat somehow this 38 year old future Hall of Famer can regain his gun slinging form from last year where he is coming off one of his most productive seasons. 

He passed for 4,155 yards, his most since 1998, and had 28 TDs with 15 interceptions. He still has unbelievable arm strength that can stretch the field and open up the offense. 

Throughout his career, Favre has the ability to improvise and make something out of nothing – he needs to do this with the Jets now in order to save this struggling franchise.
