Among the coaches Peyton Manning plans to personally meet with during the next three days include Joe Philbin of the Miami Dolphins and Mike Munchak of the Tennessee Titans, according to sources.

The meetings are scheduled to be away from the teams’ facilities.

Manning, a free agent, definitely will not be choosing a team by 4 p.m. Tuesday, the commencement of the new league year.

His meeting with Philbin, the Dolphins’ new coach, likely will be Monday night or Tuesday morning. His meeting with Munchak is expected to take place no later than Wednesday.

Manning on Sunday completed an exhaustive three-day road trip in which he is known to have visited with the Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals, the two teams that sources believe have emerged as the favorites for the free-agent quarterback.

Despite those sources’ contention about the Broncos and Cardinals as favorites, Manning has not engaged either in contract negotiations.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks and Kansas City Chiefs failed in their attempts to get Manning to visit their facilities and are no longer considered contenders for the quarterback, sources said.

In all, 12 teams contacted Manning after he was released by the Indianapolis Colts last week but not all of the teams have been publicly identified.
