There comes a time in every athlete’s career that they just don’t have “it” anymore. It is more than apparent that Peyton Manning reached that point in the 2015 NFL Season.
For the sake of both Manning and the rest of the NFL, it is time for the five-time Most Valuable Player to retire. His health and play are rapidly declining and his skills are no longer at an NFL level.
The main reason that Manning needs to retire is for the sake of his own health. Last August, Manning told Sports Illustrated’s Peter King that he no longer has feeling in his fingertips.
