The will-he-or-won't-he-return saga of Brett Favre continued Monday with news that Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress was in Mississippi to talk to the quarterback.

Hattiesburg, Miss., television station WDAM reported that the two were seen Monday at a camp for high school football players at the University of Southern Mississippi, Favre's alma mater.

When asked about the visit, Childress told the TV station, "You can fill in the blanks."

Favre, 40, has not said whether he'll return for a second season with the Vikings; it would be his 20th season in the NFL.

Childress also visited Favre in March.
