Sorgi now on notice: Colts QB Peyton Manning had a medical procedure Monday to remove an infected bursa sac from his left knee. Colts president Bill Polian announced the procedure, described as routine, on Monday night. Polian said the team's medical staff expects Manning to have "a full and complete return to action" in four to six weeks. Colts training camp begins July 25. Polian said Manning has been receiving "conservative" treatment for the inflamed bursa sac since February. He said that treatment was effective until Manning experienced increased pain and early signs of infection. Manning has started 160 straight games dating back to the first game of his rookie season. He has the longest streak in the league if Brett Favre remains retired. Manning's injury will focus the attention on Jim Sorgi, his seldom-used backup for the past four seasons. The team's 2004 sixth-round draft pick has compiled modest stats while appearing in only 14 games: a 90.4 passer rating, 61.1 completion percentage, 751 yards, six touchdowns and one interception. (Updated 07/15/2008).
Injury Report
No information available at this time (Updated 7/26/08).
Fantasy Analysis
It's doubtful Manning will miss any time during the regular season, but if he does, Sorgi would have tremendous value for Week 1 against Chicago. Keep an eye on what happens with Manning, and if his rehab takes longer than expected, consider drafting Sorgi in all leagues with a late-round pick. (Updated 07/15/2008).

Indianapolis receiver Marvin Harrison walked onto the field to cheers Friday, while the Colts opened their first training camp practice since 1998 without quarterback Peyton Manning.
Peyton Manning's streak of 160 straight starts doesn't appear in serious danger after minor knee surgery. But the superstar quarterback's medical problems -- an infected bursa sac in his left knee -- only adds to the long injury list the Colts will face when they open training camp July 25.
