For many Americans, retirement from your profession means one thing: moving to a warmer climate and living out the rest of your life. In the case of recently retired NFL quarterback Peyton Manning, that plan seems to be working as he has been seen in South Florida several times since announcing he was hanging it up shortly after winning Super Bowl 50.
Monday, Manning was at training camp with the Miami Dolphins where he reportedly was offering advice to the team’s “quarterback”, Ryan Tannehill, while hanging out with another former quarterback legend who knows South Florida quite well, Dan Marino:

Before we continue, can we all take a moment and ask Marino what the hell that outfit is? He literally looks like the old man in Boca Raton who just left the bagel shop and is going to feed ducks by the lake before an intense game of shuffleboard.
Back to the football field, Manning of course spend time leading an offense in Denver run by Adam Gase, who is now the new head coach of the Dolphins. For Tannehill, who is pretty much in the final season of proving he can lead the team before it might be time to move on, being able to have a future Hall of Famer around every so often to offer advice and tips about the offense might be the thing that saves him in South Florida.
No word on if Manning has gone full retirement and ordered the soup and sandwich combo from a nearby restaurant before taking a nap at 2 PM.
