Manning named Comeback Player of the Year

Win some, lose some.

Peyton Manning was chosen as the Associated Press Comeback Player of the Year for 2012 after missing all of the 2011 season with a neck injury.

Manning, however, missed out on the big prize as Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson was selected as the MVP following his 2,000-yard season, just a year after tearing his ACL late in the 2011 season.

Manning had a standout season following his release by the Indianapolis Colts and then signing as a free agent with the Denver Broncos. Manning led Denver to a 13-3 record and completed 68.4 percent of his passes with 37 touchdown passes and just 11 interceptions.
