The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... The Broncos and representatives for Manning have been working on revising the quarterback's contract, according to multiple NFL sources. According to Post staffer Mike Klis, the Broncos and Manning's representatives, led by agent Tom Condon, hope to reach a conclusion on a revised contract by early next week.

Diehards Line:Manning is scheduled to draw a $19 million salary in 2015 and 2016. As Klis suggests, restructured contracts can get complicated, which could explain why there's been a perceived delay in Manning formally announcing his intention to play in 2015. In case you missed it, Manning has determined he intends to play. GM John Elway and HC Gary Kubiak have said they expect Manning to play. Restructuring Manning's contract isn't the only reason there has been no formal announcement on his decision. He still must take, and pass, a team physical by next Thursday. Manning, though, said during Super Bowl week that he didn't anticipate any problems with passing his physical.
