Peyton Manning retired more than a year ago, but a Manning will be under center for at least one Broncos game this season.
The other Manning.
The Broncos will host Eli and the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football on Oct. 15, according to a league source. The team’s full 2017 schedule will be revealed Thursday evening at 6 p.m. MT.
The last time the Broncos hosted the Giants was Nov. 26, 2009, when Josh McDaniels was Denver’s head coach and Kyle Orton its starting quarterback. The Broncos won that game, 26-6, although an infamous rant by McDaniels during a timeout may be remembered more than the victory.
