124 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Manning out four to six weeks after knee procedure ESPN.com news services INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning had a medical procedure Monday to remove an infected bursa sac from his left knee. Colts president Bill Polian announced the procedure, described as routine, on Monday night. Polian said the team's medical staff expects Manning to have "a full and complete return to action" in four to six weeks. Colts training camp begins July 25. "Peyton had been receiving conservative treatment for an inflamed bursa sac in consultation with the club's medical staff since February 2008. This course of treatment was productive until Peyton experienced increased pain and early signs of infection," Polian said. "Peyton will meet with the press as normally scheduled at the opening of training camp." Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. Should be fine and ready to go by the Regular Season opener on September 7th at home against Chicago. No worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had his sac removed. No way is he back in time for the opener. A QB without a sack? No way he plays without his sac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aqua4ever04 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 why not? Brady does it every year. Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are impervious to injuries. The NFL will stop at nothing to make sure anyone that breathes on either guy is flaged or, in some cases, ejected and fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Jim Kelly having a ''bursa sack'' in his elbow. it looked like a humongous female breast attached to his elbow. it was disgusting.

Irish Jet Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Your sig.... thats a pretty bad future... beck brown and ginn? seriously? lol To be fair I would take Ginn and Brown on this team. People give Ginn a lot of abuse simply because the Dolphins passed up on Quinn to take him, he's actually got a ton of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
