QB Brett Favre's future remains uncertain as the Packers explore trade opportunities. At a shareholder's meeting Thursday, CEO Mark Murphy said the team wants "to be fair to Brett, but we also must act in the best interest of the Packers." GM Ted Thompson said the team won't release Favre, as the quarterback has requested. Commishioner Roger Goodell will reinstate Favre should he petition to be put back on the active list.
