Manning wore a dark blue jeans, blue shirt and a gray cap, white Colts. He spent most of the first half does not exceed a few meters from the backup Dan Orlovsky quarter and Curtis Painter.
Manning said that the work of the study. He shared tips. He remained involved as he continues to recover from the May 23 procedure to repair a bulging disk.
"It's huge for him to come," said the painter, who finished in three of six passes for 55 yards and an interception. "I'm not sure why. I knew I could not match, but he still wants to be someone who wants to participate and included, so it was good to have you here."
Manning helped in other ways during the '33-10 victory over the Rams Edward Jones Dome Colts in the first preseason game for both teams. He was not available after the game to discuss his progress, but some in the locker room as a positive presence in his attempt to return.
There are questions about whether he will play this season. The Colts placed him on the physically unable to perform list at the start of the preseason.
There is no timetable for the return of Manning, but he ran and threw in practice on Aug. 3, Jim Irsay Colts Owner and said he was optimistic about the resumption of the star.
On Saturday, coach Jim Caldwell, Indianapolis, Manning said the recovery continues. Caldwell said Manning managed and participated in rehabilitation, while San Luis.
"It's the same way it is," said Caldwell. "He works with doctors, our doctors were there -. Children with most rehabilitation centers - if it is still stuck to his plan. "
Working with the team of doctors is something that could hardly Manning. Blocking the NFL prevented with the coaching staff in the early stages of recovery.
In July, he was frustrated with the situation told The Associated Press in the soccer field in Thibodaux, Louisiana, "If the fact that I can not access my son and I were a little on my own, I 'I was more cautious and slow to ensure that we have no setbacks. "
"We know what to do," said receiver Reggie Wayne on Saturday. "He does what he must do to recover. As part of the team, take a trip in practice during the study of film, you know it's a good thing.
"Therefore, we hope to return sooner than later. I prefer the new and just before we rushed to return. In due course it will get there. Until then, we want him to get back 100 percent."
Manning works at this point is comparable to a situation in which he confronted in 2008. In that year, two surgeries to remove infected bag repaired left knee. He missed training camp and preseason, but threw for 4.002 yards in a regular season in which the Colts won nine straight games after starting 3-4.
Indianapolis expects Manning felt the lingering effects when you return. He comes from a regular season in which he threw for a career high of 4700 meters, which was the fifth consecutive planted at least 4,000 since 2006. His rookie season in 1998 and 2005 are the only two years that has not had that many yards.
Due to the absence of Manning, a painter and Orlovsky received more looks in training camp. Painter, a sixth-round selection of the Colts in 2009, played two games his rookie season, but has not launched a pass in 2010. August 1, the Colts have signed a contract Orlovsky a year after the Houston Texans released seven years of production on July 30.
Orlovsky had the best performance on Saturday, completing four passes for 111 ten yards and a touchdown and two interceptions. Manning is a learning experience as you can.
"I'm sure it's good for the face of the franchise with him wherever he goes," said Orlovsky. "We talked about playing here and there but nothing too crazy. You can see how it works and how intelligent he is (by) the advice and instructions and attention to detail you have. It was a good experience. "
Attention to detail Manning showed Saturday. He was a master of matter. He hopes to soon become something more.
"Everyone always learns his work ethic," said the painter. "I'm sure he works hard and he does what he can do to come back."
