{"id":1229,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/1229","headline":"Peyton Manning not expected to seek Colts GM job","dek":"The Colts have not approached their former quarterback about the vacancy, which opened six days ago.","body":"The Colts GM job has been open for six days, and Peyton Manning's name came up almost immediately as a possible candidate. According to sources, that speculation does not match reality.\n\nThe Colts have not approached Manning about the position, and he is not expected to be interested in taking it even if they did. That leaves the team searching for its next general manager without its most famous former player in the mix.\n\nManning spent his career in Indianapolis as the face of the franchise, but running the front office is evidently not on his list of post-playing ambitions, at least not with the Colts right now. The search for a new GM continues.","published_at":"2026-10-25T16:05:30.666579+00:00","source_count":5,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Report: Peyton Manning is not expected to be a candidate for Colts G.M. job","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/report-peyton-manning-not-expected-135235081.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Report: Peyton Manning is not expected to be a candidate for Colts G.M. job","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-peyton-manning-is-not-expected-to-be-a-candidate-for-colts-g-m-job"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"Sources: Peyton Manning not expected to be candidate for Colts GM job","url":"https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/50267058/sources-peyton-manning-not-candidate-colts-gm-job"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Colts GM search gets big Peyton Manning update from Adam Schefter","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/colts-gm-search-gets-big-124753053.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Report: Peyton Manning 'not expected' to be in mix for Colts GM job","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/report-peyton-manning-not-expected-124722572.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Peyton Manning reportedly has no interest in Colts' vacant GM position","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/breaking-news/article/peyton-manning-reportedly-has-no-interest-in-colts-vacant-gm-position-131436956.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Peyton Manning will not become Indianapolis Colts general manager","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/espns-adam-schefter-reports-peyton-140623689.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Peyton Manning will not become Indianapolis Colts general manager","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/espns-adam-schefter-reports-peyton-140623690.html"},{"outlet":"Awful Announcing","publisher":"Awful Announcing","title":"Peyton Manning has no plans to trade ManningCast for Colts’ front office","url":"https://awfulannouncing.com/nfl/peyton-manning-colts-general-manager-adam-schefter.html"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"How Peyton Manning feels about Colts GM job after Chris Ballard firing","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/10/25/sports/how-peyton-manning-feels-about-colts-gm-job/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Peyton Manning has no plans to trade ManningCast for Colts’ front office","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/peyton-manning-no-plans-trade-150041342.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"It seems you can forget about Peyton Manning being the Colts’ GM","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/seems-forget-peyton-manning-being-181840507.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/320520e80c3ec32146c51782ca618f980d6fd2205ba8df9f9d2e9caedf475d9f/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200_h675%3Bquality_80%3Bformat_webp/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Fprofootballtalk.nbcsports.com%2F081222064d73e525f64dd0eb03ace822.jpg","credit":"Yahoo Sports","width":1200},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
