$60 Million?

Florio thinks that’s what it’ll cost to keep 18

Over the weekend, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported that the next contract the Colts plan to give quarterback Peyton Manning in the offseason will include $50 million or more in guaranteed money.

Last night, that number moved to $60 million.

Through a storm of offseason changes, including a new head coach, new defensive coordinator, new special-teams coordinator, new offensive coordinator, the retirement and return of Tom Moore and Howard Mudd, and the departure of receiver Marvin Harrison, the primary constant is Peyton Manning.
