Emmanuel Sanders: Uncle Rico could fill void as Broncos' QB

With no Peyton Manning, no Brock Osweiler, the Broncos are in a frantic search for a starting quarterback.

That said, Denver wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders had a suggestion. An old-school talent from Idaho who could “throw a pigskin a quarter-mile” back in 1982.

That’s right, Uncle Rico from “Napoleon Dynammite.”
