Peyton Manning on what his induction means to his dad: "He's had the greatest impact on my football life. He never was my coach, but he was always there to help. And I sure did ask him for his help a lot."

Peyton Manning on being a hall of famer: "It just means I'm so grateful to a lot of people who have helped me in this journey. This wouldn't be exciting or special if you had to take this ride of football alone."

Peyton Manning on the legacy of the 2000s Colts with so many hall of famers (Marvin , Edge, Dungy, Polian) and exceptional players (Wayne, Mathis, Freeney):

"I could tell it was a special group."
