Manning previously had surgery on March 3, 2010, to relieve pain caused by a pinched nerve. Manning told The Star he anticipates “a quick recovery.’’ Manning added after last year’s procedure he “was working out within a week and lifting weights within two weeks. “We’ll formulate a plan moving forward. ...’’ Fantasy Football owners will remember that Manning was able to put the 2010 neck surgery behind him and compile one of the best seasons of his 13-year career. He passed for a career-best 4,700, adding 33 touchdowns against 17 interceptions. There's no reason to believe that won't be the case this time. “There is plenty of time for recovery,’’ Manning noted.
