Colts QB Peyton Manning Wants To Play This Season In "Controlled Circumstances"

Colts quarterback Peyton Manning (neck surgery) hopes to play in "controlled circumstances" later this season, according to ESPN NFL Insider Chris Mortensen. Controlled circumstances would be red-zone situations and the two-minute drill. It's a sign that Manning's neck fusion is coming along, but there's still no reason to be carrying Manning in re-draft leagues...

Can’t Leave It Alone: Colts Owner Continues Twitter Rants

Sometimes you just have to keep your mouth shut and Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay obviously has no idea how to do that. Irsay, having nothing to do since the Colts are on a bye week, tweeted ""Yea I saw (USC quarterback Matt) Barkley n (Stanford QB Andrew) Luck last nite, and there's others with big time potential," Irsay tweeted. "but we want 18 back...

Colts will have a hard time trading Manning

As the Colts move closer and closer to clinching the Andrew Luck sweepstakes, some have suggested that the Colts could trade Peyton Manning if they know they’ll be getting Luck-y.

Colts Can't Trade QB Peyton Manning Before $28M Roster Bonus Is Due

Peter King of Sports Illustrated reports that the Colts can't trade quarterback Peyton Manning before his huge $28 million option bonus is due. The bonus is payable several days before the start of the 2012 league year, traditionally around March 1. Trades can't be made until the league year begins. So if Manning and his agent, Tom Condon, don't agree to extend the deadline...

Brandt: Take Luck

Andrew Brandt makes a great point regarding Andrew Luck:  if you'd spend any money on Kerry Collins then Andrew Luck is definitely worth the rookie dough he'll make regardless of the Colts' plans. Peyton Manning has a $28 million option bonus due in February and a $7 million salary in 2012. Whether the Colts exercise, renegotiate, or delay payments of that option...

Andrew Luck Might Not Love Idea of Sitting Behind Peyton Manning, Could Force Pre-Draft Trade

Now that the Colts are in a one-team race for the services of Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, it's worth wondering if Indianapolis is even an appealing destination for the certain No. 1 draft pick. Earlier this season, NFL Network reported there's some fear in the league that Luck could demand a trade to avoid playing for a particular team at the top of the draft board...

Eli catches the Romo disease

PFT's 10-pack: Two weeks ago, many were singing the praises of Peyton Manning’s kid brother. Since then, Eli has been playing like the evil twin of Tony Romo.
