Peyton Manning to Take $4 Million Pay Cut to Return to Denver, Will Still Wear T-Shirts in Pool
By Jason Lisk
Peyton Manning appears to be returning next year, albeit at a discounted rate compared to what he was supposed to get. Chris Mortensen and Jeff Legwold are reporting that he will take a $4 million pay cut, taking his 2015 salary to $15 million. Still not chump change, but less than the single year franchise number, for example.
Will that allow Denver to retain one of their other free agents (Julius Thomas? Orlando Franklin?). It’s an interesting discussion . . . But let’s talk about the above photo from TMZ.
He who has not worn a t-shirt in the pool cast the first stone. Though, I will say I only resort to the t-shirt after I have gone to Florida, forgot to re-apply, and looked like a lobster on day 2 on the beach.
