He led the Packers to a Super Bowl championship, and the Green Bay Packers have honored him by retiring his jersey number, #4. Favre was the passing touchdown leader four times throughout his career and was a two-time NFL passing yards leader. In conjunction with Upper Deck Authenticated, Brett Favre is the latest in a short line of great athletes to be honored with a unique “Tegata” memorabilia piece.
