Goodell: Investigators to meet with Favre
SOUTH BEND, Ind., -- Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre will be interviewed soon about sexual harassment allegations, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Saturday.
Goodell, speaking to NBC Sports during its broadcast of the Notre Dame Western Michigan game in South Bend, Ind., said NFL investigators will meet with Favre Tuesday over accusations he sent inappropriate pictures and text messages to former New York Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger.
NBC reported Goodell has indicated he won't attend the meeting himself. Instead, Milt Ahlerich, the NFL's vice president of security, reportedly will meet with Favre in the Twin Cities.
"We want to make sure that we understand exactly what happened," Goodell told NBC's Today Show Friday. "We also want to make sure that everybody in the NFL, whether you're a player, coach, commissioner, recognize the responsibility that we all have to the public, to the people who follow our game."
Sterger, however, has not yet been willing to meet with investigators, the broadcaster reported.
Favre faces a suspension if he is found to have violated the league's personal conduct code.
