Nearly a year after allegedly sending a slew of sleazy text messages and photos to a sexy sideline reporter, former Jets quarterback Brett Favre apparently made another bad call — phoning the brunette bombshell in a bungling bid to bed her, The Post has learned.
The revelation comes as the woman at the center of the scandal, Jenn Sterger, considers dishing to the NFL about these and other salacious details of the gridiron granddaddy’s woeful wooing.
The superstar quarterback’s alleged phone calls and texts to Sterger in August 2008 is already being probed by the NFL.
But a source yesterday said that 10 months later — in June 2009 — Favre again called Sterger, after both left the team.
“The same number that was used to send the messages in 2008 is the same one used to call Jenn in 2009, when Favre was in New York to film [the HBO show] ‘Joe Buck Live,’ ” said the source.
A lawyer for Sterger, 26, is talking to the NFL about a possible interview about Favre’s alleged sexual harassment.
So far, those published voice message and photos have not been publicly confirmed as coming from Favre, a married, 41-year-old grandfather now playing for the Minnesota Vikings.
A source also said Sterger might reveal previously undisclosed conduct by Favre.
“If she was to go in, that [conduct by Favre] would be corroborated and there would probably be a bit more,” the source said.
But a report in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, however, said Sterger would decline to talk to football officials if she reaches a financial settlement with Favre.
Favre met Tuesday with NFL security chief Milt Ahlerich. On Wednesday, Ahlerich spoke with the editor of Deadspin.com, the sports-gossip Web site that originally published the story.
Sterger’s manager, Phil Reese, said “she is strongly considering” speaking with the NFL, whose reps talked as recently as yesterday with her new lawyer Joseph Conway.
