Peyton Manning has some scouting to do.
The Colts and Broncos great said he was “sad” to see brother Eli Manning retire because of just how much he enjoyed watching him play.
“I’m happy for Eli, because I know he’s at peace and he put a lot of time and thought into this decision,” Peyton told the Broncos website. “But I am sad, because I won’t get to see him play anymore. And after my dad (Archie) and Dan Marino, Eli really was my favorite player.
“So I have to find a new one. But for really 19 years going back to his three years at Ole Miss, 16 years in the NFL, I have enjoyed watching him play, watching him compete, watching him grow into a man. It’s been a heck of a run.”
