Archie Manning has decided to step down from the College Football Playoff Committee to focus on his health, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported on Monday morning.
Manning, the father of Peyton and Eli, underwent knee replacement surgery earlier this year and is reportedly having complications that are not life-threatening but will require another surgery. Archie also underwent back surgery last year and feels that he will not be able to fulfill his duties as a Playoff Committee member.
In its first year, the College Football Playoff Committee is responsible for determining the four finalists for the 2014 national championship. Here’s hoping Manning is able to get back to full health relatively quickly.
