Manning: 'This might be the year' my rookie interception record is broken

There's one NFL record Peyton Manning holds that he wouldn't mind seeing get broken this season.

During an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" on Tuesday, the Hall of Fame quarterback said he has a feeling this could be the year that his record for most interceptions by a rookie finally falls.

"With the draft just the other day, it's funny, I was thinking back a lot to my rookie in '98, 25 years ago," Manning said. "I was not very good that year, Pat. I threw 28 interceptions, which we have talked about still, is a record that I would like to get broken. I feel like this might be the year."

Manning went on to encourage coaches to give rookie quarterbacks Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, and Anthony Richardson plenty of playing time this season.

"My advice to these coaches: play Young, play Stroud, play Richardson. Let 'em learn," he said. "But if they throw 29 picks, that's not the worst thing in the world."

Manning threw for 3,739 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 28 interceptions as a rookie, leading the Indianapolis Colts to a 3-13 record. He rebounded in his second season, finishing with 26 touchdowns and just 15 interceptions while guiding the Colts to the second-best record in the AFC at 13-3.
