Brett Favre Lawsuit Over Penis Photos He Texted To Jets' Team Massage Therapists Is Settled

A lawsuit filed by two massage therapists who sued retired NFL quarterback Brett Favre over claims he sent racy text messages with photos of his penis has been settled, reports ESPN.com.

Lawyer David Jaroslawicz wouldn't comment on the terms of the settlement, saying only that the case had been "resolved and discontinued."

Christina Scavo and Shannon O'Toole had alleged in a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages that in 2008, while Favre was playing for the New York Jets, they lost their part-time jobs with the team after complaining that he sent sexually suggestive texts to another therapist, according to the ESPN report.

During the 2008 preseason, the lawsuit said, the three-time NFL MVP sent another woman, Jenn Sterger, a text message asking to get together with her and Scavo, followed by another text saying, "I guess I have bad intentions."

After Scavo's husband asked Favre to apologize, she and O'Toole lost gigs with the Jets, the lawsuit said.

Favre has denied the allegations in the past, arguing in court papers that if the therapists lost work Favre wasn't responsible for it.

The therapists' lawsuit was filed five days after the NFL fined Favre $50,000 for not being forthright in an investigation into allegations that he sent bawdy text messages and photos to the former Jets game hostess, Sterger, when they both worked for the team.

The Jets have said O'Toole and Scavo worked for the team for a combined total of five days over two years, making $2,300 in all, and were never guaranteed ongoing work. The team wasn't told about the women's concerns and simply turned to other massage therapists after its training facility moved in 2008, its officials and lawyers have said in court filings, and reported by ESPN.

Favre retired from the NFL in 2010, after playing for 20 seasons, mostly with the Green Bay Packers. He began his career with the Atlanta Falcons and ended it with the Minnesota Vikings.
