It's been widely believed that Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning underwent three neck operations over the last two years, the third of which keeping him out for the duration of the 2011 season and likely leading to his release by the franchise. According to Don Banks of Sports Illustrated, Manning actually underwent four procedures his neck. "While it cannot be determined exactly when the unreported procedure on Manning's neck took place, it was at some point after his May 23 surgery in Chicago to correct a bulging disk, and before his Sept. 9 one-level cervical neck fusion surgery in Marina Del Rey, Calif.," Banks writes. "The same doctor who operated on Manning's bulging disk in May did a follow-up procedure last summer in Chicago, as a result of the original surgery." Manning has been medically cleared to resume his playing career, but the latest revelation gives potential suitors even more medical data to sift through when deciding to offer the four-time NFL Most Valuable Player a contract.
