Peyton Manning Reveals 1 WR He Wishes He Played With

11/07/2024 Raymond 0

Peyton Manning is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks in football history. If it weren’t for the remarkable careers of Tom Brady and Joe Montana, Manning, who starred for the Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts, would likely be considered the greatest ever to play the position. Although Manning doesn’t surpass Brady and Montana in terms of Super Bowl victories, he still boasts two titles with two different franchises. This achievement is particularly noteworthy considering the Colts had written him off, leading to his late-career resurgence with the Broncos, further cementing his Hall of Fame legacy.

Throughout his career, Manning had the privilege of playing alongside some exceptional talents, especially at the wide receiver position. He threw passes to legendary players such as Marvin Harrison, Demaryius Thomas, and Reggie Wayne, among others. Despite his experience with numerous elite receivers, Manning revealed a surprising choice when asked which player he wished he had the chance to throw to, just ahead of the Netflix premiere of “Receiver,” produced by Omaha Productions.

“One, Raymond Berry,” Manning stated. “Old Baltimore Colt. Going with Raymond Berry. Got to spend some time with him. He was a true master of his craft.” Instead of opting for more contemporary stars like Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, or current sensation Justin Jefferson, Manning chose Berry, a name that might not come to mind for many fans today.

1 perfect Colts move to fill out roster before 2024 training camp

The Indianapolis Colts’ defensive backfield, comprised of relatively unknown players like JuJu Brents, Julian Blackmon, Nick Cross, and Jaylon Jones, clearly indicates a pressing need for reinforcement before the 2024 training camp kicks off. A strategic addition to their roster would be free-agent cornerback Patrick Peterson. At 33 years old, Peterson brings a wealth of experience and could seamlessly fill a critical gap for a team in dire need of veteran presence.

During the NFL draft, the Colts focused primarily on bolstering their offense. This suggests that the Colts are relatively confident in their current secondary lineup. However, this also highlights the potential benefit of adding Peterson. While the Colts don’t require a defensive savior, they certainly need seasoned leadership, and Peterson fits this role perfectly. With eight Pro Bowl selections and 36 career interceptions, including two last season, Peterson still demonstrates considerable on-field prowess.

Eagles May Have Logical Trade Partner for James Bradberry

Despite a down year in 2023, 30-year-old James Bradberry remains a valuable veteran presence in the defensive backfield. “Adding the soon-to-be 31-year-old would give the Colts another starting option at cornerback and a good mentor for their young position group at the least,” noted Holder. The top cornerbacks on the Colts’ roster currently include Kenny Moore, JuJu Brents, and Dallis Flowers. While Moore, 28, has 89 starts over his seven-year career, Flowers and Brents have a combined total of just 13 starts. Given this lack of experience, Indianapolis could benefit from adding a seasoned player like Bradberry.
