Attorney Gary H. Glaser, who represents the Jets, said in a statement:

"Unfortunately, the plaintiffs never reported the allegations to the Jets, either during or after the conclusion of their work. The case against the Jets is completely without merit, and we look forward to defending the matter in court, where we are confident that the Jets will prevail."

Among their allegations, Scavo and O'Toole said that Favre sent inappropriate and suggestive messages to them and said the created a culture that was "a hot bed of sexual harassment, sexism and inappropriate behavior."

Favre has not commented on the suit. He was fined $50,000 by the NFL last week for failure to cooperate in an investigation into allegations that he sent inappropriate voicemails and photos to former Jets gameday host Jenn Sterger.
