NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Titans coach Mike Munchak, general manager Ruston Webster and owner Bud Adams’ Chief Operating Officer in Tennessee have picked up Peyton Manning at the Raleigh-Durham airport and according to a new flight plan they’re headed back to Nashville.

Manning arrived at the airport riding in the backseat of black Escalade at 1:53 p.m. EDT.

Munchak, Webster and Mike Reinfeldt — the Titans chief operating officer — had arrived at the airport just before 1:30 p.m. EDT. The plane has departed Raleigh-Durham and is expected back in Nashville at 3:10 p.m. EDT.

Manning has worked out several times at Duke. Blue Devils coach David Cutcliffe was Manning’s offensive coordinator at the University of Tennessee and they remain friends.
