Despite recently released court documents from 20 years ago that put Peyton Manning in the middle of sexual assault accusations, it looks like the quarterback will still have a job next season. Whether it's with Denver on the field, with the Titans in a front-office role or on television, Manning will still be involved with the game. If he chooses.

According to SportsBusiness Journal, CBS, ESPN, Fox and NBC would all like to add Manning to their on-air staff for NFL broadcasts. CBS Sports chairman Sean McManus went as far as to say the network would contact the future first-ballot Hall of Famer as soon as he expresses an interest in TV work.

The New York Daily News article they reference is by Shaun King. Draw your own conclusions.

The negative story that I read about Manning was written by the white BLM guy, Shaun King. Why would anybody believe him about anything?

Would they be trying to tear down Peyton Manning with an old story like this if Cam Newton and the Panthers had won the Super Bowl?

20 years is pretty timely ... they are just now discovering Slick Willy was raping women.

It’s not his fault, it’s affluenza.

Heh, I went to the link and it looks like every story on the site was written by members of the Cam Newton Fan Club.

“Peyton’s safe because he’s white!”, etc.

These allegations are about 20 years old, made when Peyton Manning was in college. The claims were settled, and never brought to any trial - that doesn't mean Manning was guilty of anything, he was an incredibly talented college QB with a huge future ahead of him and the last thing he needed was a court case, whether he would have won or not.

I have no idea whether Peyton Manning did anything wrong or not, and neither does Shaun King.

A 20 plus year old story that was adjudicated almost 14 years ago. It was news that was widely discussed years ago. What is the story now?

I believe we are seeing a writer insert his opinion into al old story in order to get himself re-admitted to a group that excommunicated him, Black Lives Matter. He is also working on the side and for a group of feminists who are attacking the Zuniversity if Tennessee right now. His angle of attack supports their arguments and case.

The fact that Cam Newton didn’t win is the reason this black supremecist is trying to tear him down.
