This cast is kind of like a holding pattern. “Is it better?’ The answer is, ‘I don’t know, because I’m not putting any pressure on it, and it’s sort of immobilized, ‘” Manning said Wednesday in the Broncos” locker room.

“But the idea is for it to help toward the healing process”. But there’s no guarantee whatsoever. I think the biggest thing to remind myself is there’s no way I’m getting on that cover if it’s not for all those other guys….
“I saw the TV copy, there was one hit he took, I saw his whole face looking like this”, Anderson said, scrunching his nose. “Some earth-shattering medical information there”, Manning said.

“We’re totally committed to getting our quarterback, getting Peyton healthy, and getting him back and nothing’s changed”, Kubiak said, via ESPN. “It bothers me now”. He broke his forearm on November 18, 2012, and tore the ACL and MCL in his right knee on December 8, 2013.
In two games this season, Osweiler has gone 57-for-93, throwing for 666 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions.
