A year after promising to pay back $1.1 million in welfare money he received, Brett Favre has yet to pay back $600,000 of that money and he s not under a formal agreement to do so.
Favre voluntarily repaid the state of Mississippi $500,000 in May 2020 after the state auditor s office found that a nonprofit paid the retired NFL quarterback welfare money for speeches he never gave.
Logan Reeves, spokesperson for the Mississippi Office of the State Auditor, said no one in the office has spoken to Favre since he made his promise and paid the $500,000. There is no update to provide, Reeves said. He made the commitment which was in our press release a year ago today. He made the commitment to continue repaying the remainder of the $1.1 million after he made the $500,000 remittance.
