From Peter King of Sports Illustrated:

The meaning of the Brett Favre surgery -- per an ESPN report last night claiming he had his damaged right biceps tendon repaired recently by detaching it -- is simple: The man wants to play football for the Vikings, and they Vikings have obviously given him enough of an indication that if he's healthy and ready to throw full-throttle by early July that they'll be interested in signing him.

My guess is Favre had the surgery 10 to 12 days ago. An NFL medical source told me if Favre's biceps tendon was indeed "hanging by a thread,' as I heard it was, that Favre would be able to throw a football in about two weeks and should be able to throw without pain in about four weeks.

Sports medicine has come a long way. If he keeps leading that elbow sideways Brett will need Tommy John surgery.

Does this surgery help prevent interceptions?
