From Quiz Brett Favre

Answer: Kiln, Mississippi

Brett grew up in Kiln, Mississippi and played high school football at Hancock North Central High. Brett's father, Irv Favre was his coach.

6. Favre's first game-winning drive came in Week 3 of the 1992 season against the Cincinnati Bengals. Who caught the game-winning touchdown pass from Favre?

From Quiz The Life and Times of Brett Favre

Answer: Kitrick Taylor

Starting Packers quarterback Don Majkowski injured a ligament in his ankle during the game and Favre was called in to replace him. It wasn't a great performance overall by the young signal caller, with Favre fumbling four times and Packers fans openly chanting for Favre to be benched. Trailing 23-17 with just over a minute left, the Packers began a drive from their own 8-yard line. Favre connected with Sharpe on a 42-yard pass and three plays later, found Taylor for the game winning score. The legend of Brett Favre had just begun.

For whatever reason, Glanville treated Brett rather poorly, and even less than Glanville normally treated rookies.
