The Facts:
Following up on a previous item. ... Since Manning missed the 2011 season after neck surgery, he's had annual exams with doctors to make sure all is still safe and sound for the Broncos quarterback. Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports that this year's exam, which is part of Manning's contract with the Broncos, is on Monday.  Reported by Profootballtalk.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT's Josh Alper notes, the expectation is that Manning will again get a clean bill of health as he has already passed his exit physical from team doctors and had no issues with the neck during the season. Manning did have some ankle issues during the season and missed some practice time, but it's not expected to be an issue in the future. Manning is signed through the 2016 season and said before the Super Bowl that he's had no thoughts about retirement.
