Brett Favre at 55? Watch the NFL Legend Fire Bullets in Viral Video!

Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre, famously known as the “Gunslinger,” has once again proved that age is just a number. On Saturday, during the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, Favre posted a video to his social media, showing him in action on the field at the age of 55. In the clip, Favre was seen throwing sharp passes during a workout session, connecting on a variety of routes, including curl routes that hit the receiver’s inside shoulder.

Favre, who played an impressive 20 seasons in the NFL, cemented his legacy as one of the most prolific passers in history. Throughout his career, he led the league in passing attempts three times, yards twice, touchdowns four times, and interceptions three times. He also made history as one of the few quarterbacks to continue playing into his 40s. Even at 41, while with the Minnesota Vikings, Favre threw for 2,509 yards and 11 touchdowns, joining the ranks of just seven quarterbacks to throw a touchdown pass at 40 or older.

Though he retired after the 2010 season, Favre hasn’t lost his touch. Despite the years, the video from his recent workout showcased that the legendary quarterback still has a cannon for an arm. While some passes were slightly off the mark, his ability to still fire sharp throws on short and intermediate routes was a testament to his enduring talent.

Favre’s viral video has sparked interest from fans and analysts alike, who are amazed at his continued ability to throw bullets like he did in his prime. Even though he’s no longer suited up in the Green Bay Packers’ famous green and gold, Favre’s place in NFL history is undeniable, and with his latest display, it’s clear that he’s still got some fire left in that arm.

As Favre’s post-football life continues, the video has reminded fans just how special it was to watch him dominate the league for two decades, earning MVP honors three times, and throwing 112 touchdowns in a stretch from 1995 to 1997. Though he’s now 55, the once-great “Gunslinger” can still sling passes with the best of them, and who knows—perhaps there’s still a bit of football magic left in him.
