Part of the Manning football dynasty, Peyton Manning was perhaps its greatest product. A two-time Super Bowl champion and a Hall of Famer, Manning is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. As a young man playing college football at Tennessee, his talents were clear to see.
In his senior year, he won the Maxwell, Davey O'Brien, and Johnny United's Golden Arm Awards en route to the SEC Championship. He was one of the greatest quarterback prospects ever. Manning was unanimously acknowledged as the first overall pick.
Unsurprisingly, he was drafted as expected with the number one overall pick by the Indianapolis Colts, where he served as the starting quarterback from 1998 to 2010. During his tenure, the Colts went from one of the worst franchises in the league to one of its best. He led them to 11 playoff appearances, eight divisional titles, three AFC championship games, two Super Bowl appearances, and a championship title. A shift to Denver saw more of the same as in his four seasons there, he helped them clinch the divisional title each season while reaching two Super Bowls and winning one.
Peyton holds many NFL records, including MVP Awards, first-team, All-Pro selections, single-season passing yards, and single-season passing touchdowns. Today, he sits retired as one of the best Quarterbacks to ever play the game.
