The Facts:
Following up on the
ongoing story. ... Romeo Crennel could have said Manning is a great talent, but the Chiefs are set at QB. Instead, the HC’s Saturday statement that he would be “crazy” not to consider acquiring Manning, were he to become available, raised eyebrows, in light of a recent report that general manager Scott Pioli and the Colts QB’s agent have spoken twice.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Crennel actually said: “I’m not supposed to talk about anybody else’s players, and he’s still a player with Indianapolis. But with a talent like that, I would be crazy not to consider it, if he were available. So I’ll leave it at that. ...” As NFL.com's Aron Angel suggested, that quote certainly is worth noting. But for now, Matt Cassel can rest easy… That is unless the Chiefs re-sign free-agent QB Kyle Orton, whom Crennel also spoke fondly of at the NFL Scouting Combine. ... Stay tuned. Plenty more Manning to come. Bet on it.
