Peyton Manning has retired from the NFL and an era of the NFL is forever over. Manning will call it quits after 18 seasons. Manning will leave the game on top as a Super Bowl winning champion. Manning was able to accomplish the games most prestigious win for two different teams the Colts and Broncos. Manning made the Colts a house hold name and a contender every season. He put them on the map.
Manning had always had a hit to his legacy because of his losing record in the Super Bowl. Manning however won his second in February. Manning defeated the Bears with the Colts and the Panthers with the Broncos. This past year Manning struggled for really the first time in his career. He battled age and injuries. He dealt with some allegations but still led his team despite an off year.
Manning has the all time touchdown and yards records. He also has five MVP awards. Manning despite having all these accolades was always a true professional and a true leader. Manning's retirement signifies a true end of an era for the NFL. Manning will always be remembered as one of the best to ever put on a helmet.
