That's quite an honor, I'd say, and well deserved, too.

Colts owner Jim Irsay announced Friday that the team will retire Peyton Manning's No. 18 and build a statue of the record-setting quarterback outside Lucas Oil Stadium.

Less than two weeks after announcing his retirement in Denver, Manning returned to his first NFL home one more time to thank his supporters. Irsay made the announcement as a slide show of Manning's moments in Indy played on the podium in front of him and on two screens behind him.

The ceremony took place in the same room that an emotional Irsay announced the Colts would release their star quarterback to clear the path for Manning's successor, Andrew Luck.

Manning won four of his record five MVP Awards with Indianapolis, led the Colts to two Super Bowls and delivered the first world championship in city history following the 2006 season. He added his second Super Bowl title last month as the Broncos beat Carolina.

Manning's personality, success and off-the-field contributions are widely credited with helping to general public support for building Lucas Oil Stadium, which hosted the Super Bowl in February 2012.

Glad for Peyton. It's well deserved.

Peyton and Brady are two of the greatest quarterbacks. Peyton deserved this.

Well deserved for sure. He made a big impact in Denver and will be missed. his mind was willing, but the body was having a hard time keeping up in the end. Glad he went out on top.

Nice gesture. Favre and Starr don't have statues in Green Bay. I think he deserves it, if for nothing else than his incredible preparation for games. He learned well from his dad.

Colts still trying to make money off him?
