ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Peyton Manning will not become Indianapolis Colts general manager

ESPN reporter Adam Schefter has revealed that future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning is not interested in becoming the Indianapolis Colts' next general manager. According to Schefter, the sources he has spoken to indicate that both the Colts and Manning himself have not approached each other about the vacant GM position.

Schefter notes that Manning is too occupied with his various commitments to take on the role. Manning analyzes NFL games with his brother Eli on ESPN's Monday Night Football alternate broadcast, manages his production company Omaha Productions, and is a frequent spokesperson for various companies. He has stated that dedicating his time to the day-to-day operations of an NFL team would be an impossible task for him given his current workload.

Earlier in the week, Schefter had commented to a Denver radio station that the position of Colts GM would be "beneath" Manning. He questioned whether someone like Tom Brady would consider returning to the league in such a role.
