It was quite a Tuesday for Brett Favre and former New York Jet Mark Gastineau, with footage of the latter confronting the former from an upcoming ESPN 30 For 30 documentary over Favre letting Michael Strahan break Gastineau’s single-season sack record.
Favre then took to X (formerly Twitter) to “clear the air” with a thread responding to Gastineau and how Favre never meant to hurt the former pass-rusher.
And that’s when Terrell Owens stepped into the fray on X.
The legendary wide receiver had this to say: “While you’re clearing the air, clear the air on the misappropriation of funds you were pocketing.” That’s a reference to the welfare scandal in Mississippi, in which Favre allegedly misdirected funds meant for needy families to the University of Southern Mississippi volleyball team. He repaid $1.1 million in speaking fees, but there is additional money the state is trying to recoup.
Ouch.
