Minneapolis, MN (My Sportsbook) - Vikings quarterback Brett Favre has reportedly been fined $10,000 by the NFL for a crackback block he employed in Monday's preseason contest against the Houston Texans. In the third quarter, Favre put the illegal block on Houston's Eugene Wilson, who was hurt on the play. The play occurred when Favre was lined up as a receiver in the Wildcat formation and resulted in the fine, which the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported Friday. Favre said after the game that injuring Wilson was not his intention.
