For the first dozen years of his NFL career, Peyton Manning was the face of the Indianapolis Colts. His four years with the Denver Broncos yielded another Super Bowl title.

Could he imagine himself working for another franchise?

Manning acknowledged that if he joins a team's front office, the fact that he played for more than one team opens his options.

Not that he's diving into that pool anytime soon.

"I’ve had talks with a few teams, but we never got into any type of negotiation," Manning said on the Peter King Podcast this week.

"It’s all-in, all encompassing," Manning said of running an NFL team. "At some point, I may say I’m all-in."

The Colts legend added that if he had played for just one team, joining another franchise would be tougher.

Manning said his schedule is full for the next year, and he described himself as an "event planner" as much as anything else.

"I have my schedule planned for the next year ... to the irritation of some family members," he said.

So, please, don't ask him how retirement is going.

"I’m not on my couch. I’m not sleeping in. … I have a version of work."

His current project is "Peyton's Places," done in conjunction with ESPN+ and NFL Films. He visits places, some you wouldn't expect, to learn more about 100 years of NFL history.

In the show, which will be unveiled in 30 installments, Manning visited Graceland to take in Elvis Presley's football fandom; tried to replicate the Immaculate Reception; and wore the fur coat Joe Namath was pictured in during the early 1970s.

Manning on what the show is about: "Tell the story of the NFL, but do it in a way that the die-hard football fan would like, and in a way that somebody who didn’t care much about football might go, ‘That’s kind of interesting.'"

He's convinced certain records and milestones won't be challenged, including:

>> Sammy Baugh leading the NFL in passing accuracy (55.6%), interceptions (11) and punt average (45.9 yards) in the same season, 1943.

>> Gale Sayers scoring six touchdowns in a game (4 rushing, 1 receiving, 1 punt return) against San Francisco in 1965.

>> Eric Dickerson's 2,105 rushing yards in a season, 1984. ("He wants that record to hold.")
