The Jets have done the NFL’s all-time leading passer a favor releasing him so he can continue his career in the league.  The 39-year old Favre played in all 16 games for the Jets last season and he completed 343 of 522 passes (65.7%) for 3,472 yards with 22 TD passes and 22 interceptions (81.0 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 21 times for 43 yards (2.0 ypc) with a TD last season.  The Jets are going in a different direction in 2009 going with the youthful Mark Sanchez and Kellen Clemens.
