The Iron Man of football — consecutive starts record holder, three-time NFL MVP and Super Bowl champion whose gunslinger style and indestructibility made him one of sport's most compelling figures.
Brett Favre played 297 consecutive games — a record for any position player in NFL history that stands to this day. His three consecutive NFL MVP awards (1995-1997) and Super Bowl XXXI victory with Green Bay made him the defining quarterback of the 1990s. His willingness to throw into any coverage with absolute conviction — and his ability to make seemingly impossible plays — made him the most electrifying quarterback of his era.
His record of 297 consecutive starts — played through pain, injury and every weather condition — is considered one of the most unbreakable records in professional sport.
