NFL Says Vikings Didn’t Tamper With Favre

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says the  Vikings did not tamper with quarterback Brett Favre.  In a letter to both teams, Goodell acknowledged that Favre and Vikings coaches did speak, but none of those conversations suggest that Favre was soliciting a job or that other teams were soliciting his services.  The Packers released a statement saying they thought the matter should have been brought to the league's attention, and they respect Goodell's investigation of the matter and they now consider it closed.
