Numerous individuals, 10 years prior, would have said exactly the same thing regarding Manning and the Colts. For Manning’s situation, nonetheless, it was the team that pulled the plug, put together both with respect to worries about a serious neck issue and the way that the 2011 season had gone so ineffectively without Peyton that the Colts procured the option to draft Andrew Luck.

Manning isn’t the first all-time incredible who changed teams to root for another unequaled extraordinary to not change teams. A year ago, Joe Montana, who left the 49ers for the Chiefs, openly encouraged Tom Brady to wait with the Patriots.

Manning didn’t go quite that far with Rodgers, who has been connected most unmistakably with the Broncos.

“Aaron doesn’t need advice from me,” Manning said. “He’ll make a good decision. . . . . I think every player, their goal is to stay in one team the entire time if they can. Obviously, Tom made a move.”
