Brett Favre's weekly NFL show for SiriusXM has been put on hold amid his alleged involvement in a Mississippi state welfare scandal. 

A company spokesman confirmed the news to Variety on Sunday but declined to provide further comment.

Favre allegedly pressed for state officials to help him build a new volleyball complex according to the most recent court filing relating to Mississippi's welfare scandal, obtained by ESPN

Favre has appeared on 'The SiriusXM Blitz With Brett Favre and Bruce Murray' program since 2018. 

SiriusXM's move comes after a spokesperson for ESPN Milwaukee told Front Office Sports last week that it was pausing Favre's weekly appearances on the station.

Favre has not been charged with regard to the welfare misspending case, but did receive $1.1million in state welfare money for no-show speaking gigs, which he has since repaid, according to state officials.
