#NFL Peyton Manning’s List Is Down To 2 Teams

Peyton Manning appears to have entered the home stretch of his search for a new landing spot.

The four-time MVP quarterback will meet with Titans owner Bud Adams, coach Mike Munchak and several other club officials Wednesday at an undisclosed location amid reports he has narrowed his choices to the Broncos and Tennessee.

Manning has also visited the Cardinals and met with the Dolphins since being released by the Colts last week, but the Denver Post reported Tuesday that he was deciding between the Broncos and Titans — a stance seconded later in the day by former Colts GM Bill Polian on ESPN.

Meanwhile, Jets owner Woody Johnson said in a television interview that the team “passed” on Manning and he expects to see a “growth spurt” in Mark Sanchez.

The Jets explored signing Manning last week when he became a free agent, but extended Sanchez’s contract once it became clear Manning was not interested. Johnson, appearing on the Fox Business Network, said the Jets did not want Manning.

“We passed on him,” he said. “We’re signed up with our quarterback. We’ve got a pretty good tether, we’ve got five years. We like Mark.”

Johnson did admit the team explored the possibility of signing Manning.

“We have to,” he said. “Our fans expect us to look at every opportunity.”
