OT - Peyton Wants to Keep Playing (CBS)

[CISGS]

Report: Peyton Manning wants to keep playing, exploring all of his options - CBSSports.com

I pray to God that the Jets pick him up. They won't but it would be so Jets.

He saw Brady's extension, crunched the numbers/records, pounded his fist and is now looking at all the options...

 

[JMC00]

This just screams of a reaction to Brady signing a 2 year extension.

 

[varjao]

I hope he keeps playing too.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Good for him. Narratives like riding off into the sunset are stupid. He has nothing to lose, if the desire is there and a team believes in him, why not?

I am curious to see if he would be better next year or if his body is just finished.

Manning's best options:

1. Jets

2. LA Rams

3. Retire

 

[ThatllMoveTheChains!!!]

So who do we think Manning is having his supply of HGH shipped to now?

 

[DarrylS]

If he does not keep on playing #12 will pass him in just about every major category, remember when there was a lot of brouhaha when he won his 200th game.. #12 is at win 196 I believe..

 

[jah]

Welcome to LA.

 

[Joey007]

I get he would suck anyway but go **** yourself Manning I'm tired of hearing about you.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Very interesting development if true.

I also think that the Donkos have already told him sayonara OR lowballed him on a new contract and being of the prideful, ego-maniac variety, refuses to go out on Elway's terms or let this off the field stuff chase him out of the spotlight he craves so much.

He was embarrassing himself last year. Long past time to hang it up.

 

[fnordcircle]

Awesome. The more he sticks around the more all of the **** he's pulled is likely to catch up with him.

 

[BradyFTW!]

Yup, same reaction here. If he sticks around, the league will have to actually investigate him.

So what are the Donkeys cap ramifications if he retires versus if he is released or traded?

This is the other awesome part, I'm hoping. That he ****s up the Broncos if they release him.

Here's a look at the future JETS with Peyton driving.

 

[Guts]

He won't go to the Jets he'd have to compete against the Pats and a tough Bills squad. He won't go to the Rams because he would get destroyed by AZ and Seattle while SF has a decent defense as well. I see him going to the Texans or a team in a weak division he always picks the easiest path. That being said hope he retires sick of him

 

[signbabybrady]

I guess I spoke too soon he taint ready to retire yet.

Peyton's 2016 salary is guaranteed in he is on the roster at the end of this season. He will not be on the roster. The only cap obligation of Denver is $2.5M of dead money.

Peyton's contract calls for a $19M salary for 2016.
