Favre listed as questionable vs Giants


Favre listed as questionable vs Giants. Still hasn't been able to throw a proper pass in practice, and the Minnesota Vikings still haven't given up hope their quarterback will extend his NFL record for consecutive starts against the New York Giants on Sunday.

Favre did minimal work in practice Friday for the first time all week, making a few soft tosses to test out the sprained SC joint in his throwing shoulder. He is listed as questionable on the injury report and will be a on whether he will make his 298th straight regular-season start.

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. Still hasn't been able to throw a proper pass in practice, and the Minnesota Vikings still haven't given up hope their quarterback will extend his NFL record for consecutive starts against the New York Giants on Sunday.

Favre did minimal work in practice Friday for the first time all week, making a few soft tosses to test out the sprained SC joint in his throwing shoulder. He is listed as questionable on the injury report and will be a on whether he will make his 298th straight regular-season start.

Favre was unavailable to reporters Friday, but said earlier this week he does not want to compromise the Vikings' ability to beat the Giants in order to keep his streak alive, no matter how much pride he takes in the achievement.

Frazier also said the only way Favre will play is if he can protect himself, make all the throws and play the entire game. Giving him a snap or two at the beginning of the game to keep the streak going is not an option. The team is still considering giving Favre a painkilling injection to help him through it.

Receiver Percy Harvin is listed as doubtful with migraines that have kept him away from the team facility for more than a week, including last weekend's game against Buffalo.
