Peyton Manning Will Likely Miss The NFL Season Opener Next Sunday

The lingering neck injury that has kept Peyton Manning out of the entire Indianapolis Colts preseason is now threatening to sideline the Pro Bowl QB for the first time in 208 regular-season starts.

Manning is doubtful for Sunday's game at Houston, according to ESPN.

Doctors have advised him not to practice this week, so it looks like veteran QB Kerry Collins will be under center week one.
