Kubiak wouldn’t speculate how long Manning might be out.

Kubiak said he regretted the decision to roll out Manning against Kansas City. “I’m disappointed in myself, this is on me”. The future Hall of Famer was removed from Denver’s loss to the Chiefs in the middle of the third quarter Sunday after completing just 5 of 20 passes for 35 yards with no touchdowns, four interceptions and a 0.0 passer rating. Although Manning didbreak Brett Favre’s National Football League record for most passing yards in the game, Kubiak was forced to bench him in the third quarter after Manning threw four interceptions.
The status of Manning will be reviewed next Monday after he spends the week working on rehabilitation from injuries to his foot, rib cage and shoulder, all of which have caused him problems in recent weeks. Maybe looking back that was a wrong indication by me. “I will try to take advantage of this week and try to get to feeling better and getting healthy”. Browns coach Mike Pettine said Hawkins was released Monday and has been placed in the NFL’s protocol for head injuries. The Giants settled for a field goal that gave them a 26-24 lead, but the Patriots had plenty of time to drive the other way to kick the victor. Instead, Osweiler’s backup will be rookie Trevor Siemian. “He’s been one hell of a leader and a football player for this team for a lot of years, so I stand 100% behind him and do not expect to be the starter”. “I probably should have made the decision not to play him in the game”. I’ve been through it as a player.
Peyton’s brother, Eli Manning, said he suffered a full tear of his plantar fascia in Week 4 of the 2009 season and did not miss any games.
The Post’s fantasy football experts, Gene Wang and Des Bieler, discuss the major takeaways from Week 10 including Peyton Manning’s benching, Dez Bryant, Danny Amendola and waiver wire options. With the Denver Broncos losing two straight, hopefully Osweiler gets them back into the win column.
“I feel for them when it doesn’t go good, but they handle it and I handle it”, Archie said, per the AP.
Manning’s play began to dip last season after he pulled a thigh muscle, so GM John Elway and Kubiak entered this season with a new plan to keep Manning fresh for the stretch run. Manning will get at least this week off – Kubiak said he will meet with Manning again Monday to “re-evaluate” – but until Osweiler will be in the lineup until Manning is healthy. “It’s something that I wanted to get done [Monday] because I wanted the team to know our direction”.
“If you look back on it now, I have a hard time saying that’s why I played badly”, Manning said on Sunday.

“Bad game, disappointing, made a few really bad plays and just put our team in a really bad position”, Manning said.
