Colts mum on Manning’s whereabouts

Peyton Manning finally arrived in Terre Haute, Ind. Where he is or when he’ll practice with the Indianapolis Colts remains a mystery.

The two-time NFL Most Valuable Player had surgery July 14 to remove an infected bursa sac in his left knee but still has not appeared on the Colts’ practice fields. Team officials are keeping his whereabouts hush-hush.

“He’s doing fine. He’s here and he’s immobilized,” coach Tony Dungy said after Tuesday morning’s practice. “We don’t want a lot of people seeing him, so that’s why we’re not saying where he is.”

Doctors are taking a cautious approach to Manning’s recovery to lower the risk of infection.

The last time Manning didn’t report with his teammates was 1998 when he missed five days because of a contract holdout before his rookie season. Since then, Manning has made 160 consecutive regular-season starts, the second-longest streak in league history behind only Brett Favre (253).

He’s never missed a regular-season or postseason game and has missed only one play in his career because of injury.
