From Sean Jensen of The St. Paul Pioneer Press:
APYou can bet No. 4 Vikings jerseys will be a hot ticket
Any report of a mass-produced, league-approved Brett Favre Minnesota Vikings jersey is premature, an NFL spokesman said Thursday.
"We wait until there is a player contract that has been approved; then we begin mass producing them," league spokesman Brian McCarthy said. "But nothing has transpired from here."
First, a signed Favre contract with the Vikings would have to be delivered to the league and players union.
Then, the league and union would have to approve any mass-produced official NFL jersey by Reebok.
It is believed that Reebok already has prepared screens of a Favre Vikings jersey, just as it would for the teams in the Super Bowl.
That way, as soon as the league approves a contract, Reebok immediately can begin filling orders.
