Report: Peyton Manning individually texted his teammates to share decision

Peyton Manning

Peyton Manning added a personal touch to his retirement announcement and gave special consideration to his teammates.

According to ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio, Manning sent individual text messages to his Denver teammates on Saturday night to personally inform them of his decision to retire.

Full credit should be given to everyone involved, as nobody leaked anything before Sunday morning when the team confirmed the news.

Manning is known in NFL circles as a great teammate, and this will only add to that reputation. They’ve repaid that respect to him in kind in the past. That said, the news like didn’t come as a huge surprise to any of them, given that they reportedly already had an inkling that it was coming prior to the Super Bowl.
