According to a feature story done by Bleacher Report, multiple people who have spent time around Manning recently said that he wants to run a team with a stake in ownership, similar to what Michael Jordan has done with the Charlotte Hornets.
“I could see him running an organization,” former NFL head coach Mike Shanahan said in the story. “He is so on top of every area because he has been working at it his whole life.”
