Peyton Manning Officially a Bronco

After fourteen seasons as an Indianapolis Colt, Peyton Manning has signed with the Denver Broncos. The Broncos offered a five year, $96 million contract. The thirty-five year old missed playing all of last year, with a neck injury, under going four different surgeries to help with it.

On March 7, the Colts released Manning from their contract with him, announcing that his number, 18, would never be worn by a Colt again, but that it was time for them to move on.

Manning holds an impressive number of awards, including four MVPs, eleven Pro Bowls, six offensive player of the year awards, and one super bowl ring.

Unknown at this point is what will be the result for Bronco's quarterback Tim Tebow, who had won the starting position last year, and led the team to the playoffs. Whether he'll be kept on as backup, to learn from Manning, or traded off will have to be seen.
