Did Netflix make a documentary about Brett Favre’s off-field issues to attack the Green Bay Packers legend for supporting President Donald Trump?

The 55-year-old Hall of Famer did not say as much, but has amplified those opinions to his 462K followers on X.

‘Netflix is going after @BrettFavre for being an outspoken Trump supporter,’ read an X post from the Hodge Twins, a pair of conservative comedians and popular social media influencers. ‘We stand with Brett Favre.’

Not only did Favre re-post the Hodge’s take, but he also responded to one supporter who minimized the NFL legend’s role in a Mississippi welfare scandal.

‘Amen,’ wrote Favre, who has been forced to repay $1.1 million in welfare money that was intended to combat poverty in his native Mississippi. ‘Plus every enтιтy that is required to approve the grant, approved it without hesitation.’

Favre also reposted criticism of the Netflix documentary from one podcaster, although the retired quarterback neglected to respond to the man’s invitation to be interviewed on an upcoming episode.

Football fans have been divided on the Netflix documentary, ‘Untold: The Fall of Favre,’ which focuses on Sєxual harᴀssment claims and his connection to a $94 million welfare scam in his native Mississippi.

Favre allegedly sent ɴuᴅᴇ pH๏τographs to a female New York Jets employee Jenn Sterger in 2008. And although he denied sending the pH๏τo when the story broke in 2010, he did admit to leaving her voice messages.

The Super Bowl winner has faced other allegations of misconduct, including the aforementioned welfare scandal that led to six arrests after $94 million in alleged fraud was revealed by the state auditor.

Favre was never charged, and while he has denied knowingly receiving welfare funds, he has been forced to make $1 million in repayments to the government.

State officials accused Favre of funneling tax money towards pet projects, including a pharmaceutical drug he was invested in and a volleyball court at his alma mater, Southern Mississippi.

The state Department of Human Services paid $1.1 million in welfare money to a nonprofit known as the Mississippi Community Education Center. That organization then paid Favre Enterprises twice for speaking engagements, ‘radio and promotional events and business partner development.’

Favre never made the public appearances, and although he has repaid the principal, he and the state later went to court over more than $200,000 in interest.

There was also an alleged plan to put $5 million in funding towards a new volleyball stadium at Southern Miss, where he his daughter was playing the sport at the time.

Furthermore, Favre’s text 2019 text messages to then-Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant surfaced, showing the Green Bay Packers legend requesting funding for Southern Miss’ football team.

Bryant later told Favre they ‘have to follow the law.’

Favre is named in the state’s lawsuit as the ‘largest individual outside investor’ of Prevacus, a biotech firm later called Odyssey Health, which improperly received $2.1 million in funds.

More recently, Favre – who famously battled concussions as a player – has come forward about his Parkinson’s diagnosis.

‘Sadly, I also lost an investment in a company that I believed was developing a breakthrough concussion drug I thought would help others, and I’m sure you’ll understand why it’s too late for me because I’ve recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s,’ Favre told lawmakers in 2024.

Favre’s health problems did not stop him from stumping for Trump, which he did at an October event in Wisconsin.
