Peyton Manning ends retirement presser with ‘Omaha’ (Video)
Peyton Manning officially announced his retirement from the NFL on Monday with an emotional speech, and he ended his ensuing press conference with a familiar term.
“Omaha.”
As he was leaving the podium, Manning thanked his former teammates and coaches before uttering his favorite pre-snap term.
Another great moment came when Manning gave ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen a shoutout, noting that his young daughter was paying attention to reports about her dad’s retirement plans.
Unfortunately, Manning did not provide an explanation for what “Omaha” means. One of his former teammates recently tried to explain the cadence, but it’s still pretty unclear. I’m sure that’s just the way Manning likes it.
