New York Jets QB Brett Favre participated in practice on Wednesday and should start against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday, extending his streak of consecutive games to 257, a stat that is already a record for NFL quarterbacks.  Favre got injured this past Monday night versus the San Diego Chargers and there was some speculation that he wouldn’t be ready to go on Sunday.  However, this is Brett Favre we’re talking about, a man who plays hurt and obviously enjoys the game of football.  Short of literally coughing up a lung, Favre will be on the field between the sidelines, taking snaps under center.
