The Facts:
Following up on a
previous item. ... According to Manning’s older brother Peyton, the Giants’ franchise cornerstone has already started throwing the football. “He feels good,” Peyton Manning said of Eli. “He was doing some light throwing the other day, obviously just kind of upper-body stuff.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Daily News staffer Ebenezer Samuel, Peyton seemed to indicate that Eli wasn’t stepping into his throws, but it’s all progress, and it’s part of swift progress from the QB. When the injury first happened, Manning said doctors told him it might be six weeks until he was running, and Giants sources indicated the club would take things slowly. Just last week, Giants GM Jerry Reese announced that Manning would sit out the entire spring. But his rehab seems to be going well. Last week, the quarterback declared that he was off crutches and out of his walking boot, and that he’d started running. And he’s apparently keeping his arm prepared for action, too. This seems to be a best-case scenario, but again, fantasy football owners shouldn't bank on a rebound season for Manning until we see signs it's possible later this summer.
