FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -New York Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum has acknowledged he made a mistake handling Brett Favre’s biceps tendon injury last season, and should’ve listed the quarterback on the team’s injury report.
Tannenbaum and the Jets could face disciplinary action from the NFL for not listing Favre’s torn biceps tendon on the weekly report following the injury with four or five games remaining. Tannenbaum said Favre should’ve appeared on the report as “probable.”
Tannenbaum called the league offices and spoke to Ray Anderson, the NFL’s executive vice president of football operations, about the issue. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello confirmed the league is looking into the situation.
