Peyton Manning has delivered what is best as a quarterback in his NFL tenure. He was among the greatest to grace the game. With him retired, he has a booming career as a media mogul. However, it does not rule out the possibility of Peydirt taking another role. The HOF QB’s recent appearance highlighted the chance of becoming a Commissioner, and he spoke passionately about that.

PFT’s Mike Florio sat down with Peyton Manning for an interview. They talked about everything from his successful career as a media tycoon to Jeff Saturday’s hiring by the Indianapolis Colts. Florio also speculated on whether Manning would ever want to be the commissioner of the NFL.

Peyton Manning mentioned, “I’m not qualified in my opinion. I’ve seen Roger Goodell was the commissioner of the first Super Bowl that he had the Colts beat the Bears. I had this great picture of Roger and Jim Nantz up there on stage. Great moment. Roger looks a lot younger back in 2007 than he does now, and it hasn’t been that long ago. So he’s done a heck of a job.”

“I’m not sure anybody wants to follow Roger Goodell as commissioner. It’s like following John Wooden at UCLA. I mean, the bar has been set high. Roger takes criticism, certainly. But I think he’s been great for the game. That’s just not something on my radar specifically, because I don’t think I’m qualified to do it,” He added.

The Sheriff could be a solid fit for Commissioner. However, he may not change his current role as a media tycoon. Manning may not leave the booth soon.
