Future Hall of Fame quarterbak Brett Favre knows a thing or two about winning. The 11-time Pro Bowler earned a Super Bowl ring with the Green Bay Packers back in January of 1997 and started 24 career playoff games.
Favre’s former teammate, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson, is now relying on him to give the team a pep talk prior to Super Bowl LII against the New England Patriots.
Brett Favre will speak to the @Eagles Saturday night at the #SuperBowl as a guest of Doug Pederson. The two were teammates for 7 years on the Packers.

We’re not exactly too sure what Favre is going to say here. Heck, what can he say to pump up an already excited Eagles squad that finds itself as huge underdogs heading into Sunday’s game?
Following their blowout win over Favre’s former Minnesota Vikings team in the NFC Championship Game, the Eagles are riding a wave of confidence. Maybe he can instill a bit more in the team Saturday night.
