Peyton Manning Picks Broncos

Tebow expected to leave.

Goodbye Indianapolis, hello Denver! ESPN is reporting that star Colts quarterback Peyton Manning has decided to play for the Broncos. Manning, who was released from Indianapolis earlier this month, had been in discussions with a handful of teams—including the San Francisco 49ers and the Tennessee Titans—but decided Denver was the place for him. The two sides still need to hammer out the details of a contract, but Manning and John Elway, vice president of football operations for the Broncos, have already discussed a five-year $95 million contract. ESPN is also reporting that the Broncos will trade Christian sensation Tim Tebow once Manning officially becomes their quarterback.
