PLAYERS: Peyton Manning,  Chris Mortenson,  Alex Smith
TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts,  San Francisco 49ers

Per Chris Mortenson, Peyton Manning worked out for the 49ers at Duke Tuesday.

If you thought the Titans were the dark horse in this whole thing; this blows your mind. He performed well enough that the team ordered a medical exam for him.

What does all f this mean for 49ers QB Alex Smith? All we can speculate on is that Smith’s deal is not done yet and the 49ers are exploring all options.

San Francisco is a team that is set up to win NOW, so perhaps the 49ers are willing to go all in and gamble on the four time league MVP.

To these eyes, the Broncos are now the favorite but Manning going deeeeep to Moss, sure does sound good.
