Brett Favre and his wife left Green Bay on Wednesday afternoon not knowing if his eventual NFL destination is Tampa Bay, New York or somewhere else.
Favre and his wife, Deanna, boarded the private plane that left for Hattiesburg, Miss., at 12:25 p.m. CT, saying that a trade was not yet completed and that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Jets are both still in the running.
Favre's agent, James "Bus" Cook, also was aboard the plane that landed two hours later. Favre's family home is near Hattiesburg.
A league source, meanwhile, told ESPN's Sal Paolantonio on Wednesday that the Jets have offered a fourth-round pick to the Packers in exchange for Favre. That offer would be upgraded to a second-round pick based on the 2008 performance of Favre and the team, the source said.
The Packers are reportedly asking the Bucs for a third-round pick and Brian Griese or another another player in trade talks for Favre.
Favre confirmed from Mississippi that he was considering the Buccaneers and Jets.
