Brett Farve Traded to NY Jets

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) _ Brett Favre's journey from retirement and back has finally ended — in New York. The Green Bay Packers reached an agreement Wednesday night to trade their three-time MVP and Super Bowl-winning quarterback to the New York Jets, ending an emotionally grinding month of indecision over Favre's future.

The move ends a remarkably ugly split between Green Bay and one of its most beloved players, allows the Packers to move forward with new starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers and gives Favre a fresh start — although not exactly the one he wanted, as Favre's first choice was widely believed to be the Minnesota Vikings.

Terms of the trade weren't immediately available.
