The NFL has set protocols for reopening team facilities and has told teams to have them in place by May 15. The first phase will allow a limited number of personnel, initially 50 percent, up to 75 people on any day. No players would be allowed except to continue therapy and rehab for injuries that was underway when they closed. Goodell said they’re working on the next phase.

 

Favre Repaying Money

Hall of Fame ex-NFL quarterback Brett Favre is repaying $1.1 million he got from welfare funds for speeches he didn’t deliver, Mississippi state auditor Shad White said Wednesday. Favre was paid by Mississippi Community Education Center, a nonprofit whose former leader has been indicted for welfare embezzlement. The Center had contracts to spend money through the welfare program. Favre said on Facebook Wednesday night he didn’t know the payments came from welfare funds, and said, “I have never received moneys for obligations I didn't meet.”
