Peyton Manning is still out indefinitely after undergoing a neck procedure, but that doesn’t mean he won’t be invovlved as the Indianapolis Colts take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. Manning will still be on the sidelines, but he may take on a coaching role during Sunday night’s game.
Steelers Vs. Colts: Peyton Manning To Call Plays From The Sidelines?
How involved will Manning be? Tony Dungy had a few thoughts during the pregame show.
Tony Dungy just said that "I think Peyton will be calling a lot of plays tonight."
It wouldn’t at all be surprising to see Manning acting as a coach for the Colts.
