Fifteen years later, the damage still resonates.
“Brett Favre ultimately destroyed my life,” Jenn Sterger says in the upcoming Netflix documentary “Untold: The Fall of Favre” while detailing the sexting scandal that Favre embroiled her in during his Jets tenure.
“The Fall of Favre” seemingly will cover all the angles of Favre’s off-the-field controversies with his alleged misappropriation of Mississippi welfare funds, and his Jets sexting scandal seemingly will be prominent.
Favre joined the Jets for one lone season in 2008 and attempted to court Steger, then a sideline reporter with the team.
Favre allegedly sent lewd photos of his genitals, voicemails and MySpace messages to Sterger, which she revealed two years later.
The NFL ultimately fined Favre $50,000 for failing to cooperate with the investigation but did not levy a suspension. Favre denied sending the photos but admitted to leaving the voicemails.
The Netflix documentary shows The Post’s front page from when the story broke on Oct. 8, 2010, while a broadcaster says, “Allegations that he sent lewd texts and photos to a New York Jet employee.”
Sterger then details Favre’s advancements toward her.
“I was at a game, and someone said Brett Favre wanted my phone number,” Sterger says in another clip. “And I just kept saying, ‘No.’”
The documentary then shows two alleged texts spaced 16 minutes apart on Aug. 23, 2008, with the first landing at 10:46 p.m.
The first said, “Come over 2nite?” and the latter said, “I’ll send u a car…”
“I started getting text messages,” Sterger says. “And then I started getting voicemails. I was like, ‘Oh, I’m in serious trouble here.’”
Sterger is later seen listening to an alleged voice mail from Favre stating: “Would love to have you come over tonight.”
The promo ended with Sterger issuing a warning.
“When someone shows you who they are,” Sterger says as she raises her eyebrows, “believe them.”
Sterger has not been shy about hiding her opinion of Favre since the scandal broke.
She tweeted, “Oh.. NOWWWWW he gets in trouble for inappropriate texts, in 2022 when the Mississippi Welfare scandal came to light.
Sterger later mentioned “karma” after Favre revealed he has Parkinson’s Disease.
“PSA: Please don’t send me links to it. I’ve seen it. I can read,” Sterger wrote in an Instagram Story last September. “I don’t wish bad things on anyone, but I know Karma never forgets an address.
“Imagine being diagnosed with such a terrible disease and not having the resources to fight it bc some Hall-of-Fame quarterback stole it?
