Peyton Manning says he feels really good and that he expects to play football again.
However, there is no timetable for the quarterback's decision.
"I really feel good. I continue to make progress every day," he said. "Everything that the doctors have told me has been on point, which is encouraging to me. I just had a great day today with rehab, just got back from the facility, and that's what we continue to do. Just keep trying to get better. So far I have. That's the plan from here on out."
Manning said that he'll continue to have checkups over the next several weeks, and termed his mood as "encouraging."
The Colts face a March 8 deadline for a decision on Manning. They owe him a $28 million option bonus on that date. If they don't pay it, he becomes an unrestricted free agent.
