The Facts: Manning might very well be brought back for a 16th season as the Giants quarterback, but GM Dave Gettleman isn’t ready to publicly commit to it. While meeting with the media Wednesday morning, Gettleman said a decision has not yet been made regarding the team’s quarterback plans for next season, simply stating that he will do what’s in the best interest of the Giants.

Diehards Line: Gettleman relayed that he had a long, “no holds barred,” conversation with Manning on Monday, but refused to share the details of the discussion. “It was a very honest and up-front conversation,” Gettleman told reporters. “….We’re trying to build sustained success. That takes brutal honesty and tough decisions. ..." This season, Manning had a career-high 66 percent completion rate, threw for more than 4,000 yards, with 21 touchdowns and 11 interceptions, while failing to reach the playoffs for the sixth time in seven years. “He still can make the NFL throws. He’s still got it, that part,” Gettleman said. Though the Giants hold the sixth overall pick in the next draft, the upcoming quarterback class, headlined by Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins, greatly pales in comparison to last year’s elite crop. “If you make something a priority you will make a mistake,” Gettleman said. “It’s got to be in the flow of what you’re doing. You can’t force it, especially at quarterback.”
