Denver is in cap HELL...no way Manning was going to play for them next year. And no way would Manning take $2 or $3 million to play for anyone else next season. With all the money he has earned over his career through football, endorsements and making PIZZA's would he ever suit up in a uniform for that amount of money.

I only used $2 million because that's what POP said a team had to be willing to offer a player for him to consider said player "young" in this league. Peyton Manning is older than dirt in football years and yet I have absolutely no doubt some team would have thrown north of $8 million for his services for one season. However, you're crazy if you don't think some team would offer him ATLEAST a couple million. Would he take it? Probably not.

His name alone is a crowd draw. Plus, his jersey sale and the publicity. ****! He'd get 8 mil just for his name.

In his thank you facebook post to fan no mention whatsoever of any health reasons for his retirement. Simply said it was becoming to hard to keep playing at the level he was accustomed too.

Kudos to him he could of continued to collect a paycheck but decided to leave the game on his own terms.
