Seconds after I posted a blog about the roster situation between quarterbacks Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson, I noticed a report by Jeremy Fowler of the Pioneer Press about the roster situation between Rosenfels and Jackson.

With the emergence of the raw and athletic Joe Webb at quarterback, it appears it would be virtually impossible for the Minnesota Vikings to sneak him onto the team’s practice squad while exposing him through waivers. Quarterback Brett Favre is the obvious lock at starter, which leaves one more roster spot on the quarterback depth chart for [...]
The Minnesota Vikings and Oakland Raiders are discussing the availability of quarterback Sage Rosenfels, according to Michael Lombardi of the National Football Post.

Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Brett Favre says he “may not” be able to play in all 16 regular-season games. When asked about his consecutive playing steak, he said he “absolutely” would sit out this season if he’s not healthy enough to suit up as Minnesota’s quarterback. Not surprising words coming from a 39-year-old, who is back [...]
