The Facts: Manning's days with the Giants might well not be done with the conclusion of the 2018 season. As the Giants are clinging to the slimmest of playoff hopes, Manning's play has been steady down the stretch and NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport said Sunday that the veteran slinger could be playing his way onto next season's roster. "He is, from what I understand, playing his way onto the roster in 2019," Rapoport said.

Diehards Line: Rapoport continued: "Sources I talked to, were adamant, no decision has been made firmly. This is an offseason situation. But the way he has been playing, the way he has held up certainly opens up the possibility that he is back in 2019; something which if you talked about earlier in the season, we all would've thought you were crazy." With Manning set to make $16.5 million next season, the right situation may be Manning sticking around for a swan song in New York while ushering in a new era under center for whomever the Giants decide -- or hope -- is their next franchise quarterback.
