Brett Favre is withdrawing a defamation lawsuit he filed against sports media personality Pat McAfee. The lawsuit was related to McAfee’s comments about Favre’s connection to allegations of misusing federal funds meant to assist underserved families.
As far as is publicly known, the lawsuits against Sharpe and White are still pending. Attorneys for Sharpe filed a motion earlier this month for a U.S. District Court judge to dismiss the case as “incurably defective,” in part because of what they described as his protections under Mississippi law and the First Amendment.Both Sharpe, a Hall of Fame former tight end who co-hosts a program on Fox Sports 1, and McAfee have sharply criticized Favre on their respective platforms.
In Favre’s lawsuits, Sharpe was cited as having told viewers that the former Green Bay Packers star was “a sorry mofo to steal from the lowest of the low” and that he “stole money from people that really needed that money.” McAfee’s cited comments include an assertion that Favre was “stealing from poor people in Mississippi.”in a lawsuit, brought by the state’s Department of Human Services, that seeks to claw back funds originally earmarked for low-income residents.
