Peyton Manning is currently working out in his hometown of New Orleans to prepare for the 2015 season. Manning is training to play next season, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be in Denver.
Manning has yet to have his annual neck exam, and Jason Cole of Bleacher Report is reporting that John Elway and the Broncos are undecided on Manning at this point.
“At this point in his career, the Broncos could fail Peyton Manning for any reason, including the four neck surgeries that he has already had,” Cole reported Tuesday. “In talking to sources close to the team, there’s a big question here about whether the Broncos want to bring him back for one more year. They’re going to have to feel very comfortable about this.”
“John Elway said at his end of the year press conference that he thinks Manning has one more year left,” Cole added. “He’s probably going to stand by that, but I will say this — it is probably only one more year.”
Manning completed 395 passes for 4727 yards and 39 touchdowns. Peyton is still better than the bulk of the quarterbacks in the league, but is he worth almost $20 million.
