Is Peyton Manning Done?

Popular, Sports |

Peyton Manning and Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay have made it official … Manning’s playing days in Indy are over … but the team plans to RETIRE Manning’s #18 jersey, stat.

Fighting back tears … an extremely emotional Peyton addressed Colts fans … saying, “Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart, I truly have enjoyed being your quarterback.”

Peyton — who’s been plagued with neck injuries — said he’s confident he’ll play in the NFL again … but says he hasn’t thought about which team he’ll join next.

Manning talked about his recovery … saying, “I’ve got some progress to make … but I’ve come a long way. I really enjoy being back out there.”

Irsay — who was equally emotional and also battled tears — explained his decision to cut Peyton by saying, “[The Colts are] rebuilding a team with a salary cap problem.”

Peyton was due to make a $28 million bonus with the Colts tomorrow as part of a 5-year $90 million deal — but Irsay decided to release him before the payout.

Still, Irsay made it clear … “The 18 jersey will never be worn again by a Colt on the field.”

He continued, “We’re here very much as well to honor all the incredible memories and incredible things that he’s done for the franchise … for the city … for the state … I can’t thank [Peyton] enough.”

A reporter asked why Peyton didn’t retire as a Colt — and Peyton replied, “I don’t want to retire. I still want to play.”
