Manning is enjoying his down-time and wasn't interested in talking the Broncos or the upcoming season.

But University of Tennessee football? Well that's different.

"Tennessee folks truly keep up with players that played here, whether you were from here or not," Manning said. "Obviously I'm from New Orleans but I feel very much like a Tennessean and different places that I played, different NFL stadiums, you still see always a Tennessee jersey in the stands, someone wearing it. So there's always that connection"
