Former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre will serve as a color analyst Oct. 1 for a game between Southern Mississippi and Rice, according to a report in USA Today.
"I'm excited to be back at Southern Miss with the Golden Eagles," said Favre said in a statement published by USA Today. "I'm not committing to a new career in broadcasting, but just wanted to support Southern Miss and check out the view from the press box. It should be fun and I hope the fans enjoy it."
The game will be broadcast on CSS, a regional sports channel in the South, the report said.
Favre played his last two seasons with Minnesota.
