AP source: Favre tells Vikings he will not return

[WI_DEM]

Well see...

MANKATO, Minn. (AP) — Brett Favre has informed the Minnesota Vikings he won't return for a second season, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

As always with the 40-year-old star quarterback, things could change. He's waffled before and may very well waffle again.

Favre called coach Brad Childress to say his injured left ankle is not responding as well to surgery and rehabilitation as he had hoped, the person told the AP on condition of anonymity because the team had not made an official announcement.

Speaking to reporters after practice Tuesday, Childress wouldn't confirm Favre's status with the team, saying it was a "fluid situation" and he could very well have a fresh message from the quarterback waiting for him.

"I'm not a big hearsay person," Childress said. "I gotta hear it from the horse's mouth."
