Former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning has been quiet since he retired in February. While that may be the case, don’t expect him to be on TV for the 2016 season, according to Pro Football Talk.
The future Hall of Famer has no interest in a broadcasting job, according to New York Daily News’ Bob Raissman. When he did retire, there was speculation that he would take a broadcasting or front office job.
ESPN, CBS, NBC, and the NFL Network would all covet Manning if he did change his mind. He could potentially be a studio analyst, or even a color commentator for games, like former quarterback Troy Aikman has done.

Aikman is the leading NFL commentator for Fox Sports. Manning was rumored to have interest in this type of job in the past.
While he may not participate now, it doesn’t change things in the future.
While Manning said he’ll wait to take a job in broadcasting — if he does at all — other retirees from this off-season have already accepted jobs. Matt Hasselbeck and Charles Woodson — who played for the Indianapolis Colts and the Oakland Raiders respectively last season — took jobs with ESPN.
Hasselbeck and Woodson will be part of Sunday NFL Countdown and other NFL shows on the network.
