The Facts:
Manning's latest progress report mirrors his previous ones: He's on schedule. That was the update offered Thursday by HC Tony Dungy regarding the health of his starting quarterback. When the Colts broke training camp this morning, Manning had missed all 25 full-squad workouts.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Manning has neither talked with the media nor been on hand for any practice sessions while he continues his recovery from July 14 surgery on his left knee to remove an infected bursa sac. Rookie tight end Tom Santi had a similar procedure two weeks before Manning's operation and he began running after practice on Tuesday. Dungy said Santi "is about ready to come back and practice and I would imagine Peyton will be a couple of weeks behind him." That would indicate Manning might not be cleared to practice until Aug. 25, which would be in line with the originally stated recovery time of four to six weeks.
