Basicallly, it’s no big deal that Indy is waiting
Polian said he has no problem with Manning not wanting to talk now. The Colts have signed many players with expiring contracts in the window between the end of the season and the beginning of free agency. “Historically, including with Peyton, we’ve done virtually every player we’ve had up either before the start of the season or at the end of the season,” Polian said. “And the vast of the majority have been done after the season concludes.”
I asked Polian if he would do whatever it took to make sure Manning remains a Colt. He said he “won’t go that far.” But he also said, “I do feel he will be here. We have signed him twice before.” He is not the only one who feels strongly that Manning will remain in Indianapolis.
