Sterger Could Meet With NFL By Next Week

NEW YORK (AP) The manager for Jenn Sterger says it's likely she will meet with the NFL by the end of next week about the league's investigation into whether Brett Favre sent her inappropriate text messages and lewd photos.

Sterger's manager Phil Reese said Saturday nothing definite is set, though a meeting "is likely, but wouldn't be before the end of next week."

Sterger is the former New York Jets sideline hostess who, according to a report from the website Deadspin, allegedly was sent the text messages and photos by Favre when he was with the Jets in 2008.

The Vikings quarterback met with NFL vice president for security Milt Ahlerich on Oct. 19 about the matter. Favre has called the investigation "a league issue."

On the field, Favre is also dealing with two ankle fractures that could keep him out of Sunday's game against the Patriots.
