Via ESPN:
Those close to Manning believe he wants to continue playing and think his competitive juices will have him looking for a starting gig this offseason.
“You miss being a part of the action and practicing and all that,” said Manning, who had been relegated to the scout team for the past 10 weeks. “Felt good to get out there [Wednesday] and throw it around and compete a little bit.”
The opportunity to start will not exist in the future with the Giants (2-10), the only professional team he has known. The Giants are fully invested in Jones, the No. 6 pick, and Manning isn’t likely to return as his backup — a role that hasn’t seemed to suit him.
Let’s hope before the MannIng farewell tour ends we get another Manning face or two in a Giants uniform. We’re going to miss those.
