Hempstead, NY (Best E Casino) - Jets head coach Eric Mangini said Tuesday that he is considering sitting quarterback Brett Favre in New York's last preseason game, Thursday against the Philadelphia Eagles. "I don't know," said Mangini on Tuesday when asked if he would keep Favre out of Thursday's game in Philadelphia. "I'm not finalizing that, but yeah, if I could tilt one way or another ... I'd tilt that way." Favre completed 9-of-12 passes for 96 yards in the Jets' 10-7 win over the New York Giants on Saturday, his second exhibition game with the club. The former Green Bay Packers QB completed 5-of-6 passes for 48 yards and a score in the Jets' second preseason game, a 13-10 loss to the Redskins. The Jets traded a 2009 conditional draft pick for the recently unretired Favre earlier this month.
