Actor Rob Lowe tweeted this afternoon that he has learned from friends and sources that Peyton Manning will retire on Wednesday, ending any possible return to the NFL in 2012.
“My people are saying Manning will retire today,” Lowe wrote on his Twitter page. “#Colts fans, let’s hope my info is wrong. Don’t like being wrong but…”
Manning had three surgeries on his neck to repair a serious nerve ending injury following the 2010 season. Lowe, who is friends with Colts owner Jim Irsay, is a star on the NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation”, a show that takes place in Pawnee, Indiana.
