Offer ready for Manning

Once the season ends, this will go quickly

On Monday, hours before the Colts hosted their first Monday night game in Lucas Oil Stadium, Irsay said the team had hoped to complete some negotiations during the bye week. He did not divulge details of the team’s proposal.

But Irsay reiterated Monday that he still intends to make Manning the highest-paid player in the NFL, and that Patriots quarterback Tom Brady‘s recent deal would be the foundation for what the Colts are offering. Manning is the only four-time MVP in league history.
