Green Bay and the Packers are in Brett Favre's rearview mirror.

A private plane left the airport Wednesday with Favre and his wife, Deanna, on board.

Packers general manager Ted Thompson postponed his media availability late this morning, one of several signs a trade is in the works for the unretired quarterback.

Favre's agent, "Bus" Cook, tells the Jackson, Mississippi Clarion-Ledger that a trade to either Tampa Bay or the New York Jets is imminent.

Tampa Bay coach Jon Gruden refused to address speculation the team is on the verge of a deal for Favre.

The Buccaneers have yet to confirm publicly that they are interested in Favre. But, Gruden concedes that Favre's situation is "unprecedented" and acknowledged that he's always willing to explore ways to improve his team.
