Statues Honoring Players at NFL Stadiums
After Peyton Manning announced his NFL career was at an end, the Indianapolis Colts announced it would retire Manning’s No. 18 jersey. The Colts also said they will erect a statue of their former quarterback outside Lucas Oil Stadium. The Manning Monument won't be the first statue celebrating all-time football greats — and it certainly won't be the last. When metal Manning is dedicated in the not-too-distant future, it will join an ever-growing list of statues teams have erected outside of stadiums around the NFL. Here are some of the statues honoring legendary gridiron heroes currently outside stadiums around the NFL.
