Peyton on a Thursday morning; game day looks a little different for Mr. Manning

Peyton Manning’s game-day morning was a little different for the first time in a few decades.

While his former Denver Broncos teammates were holed up in meetings and final preparation for Thursday night’s game against the Carolina Panthers, Manning was hanging out as a retired guy this morning, taking in the NFL Kickoff festival in downtown.

Building on his next career as a pitchman, Manning did some promotional work early out at Civic Center Park.

The 19-year NFL veteran and two-time Super Bowl winner tested his skills at negotiating household chores at the “Peyton Manning Retirement Combine” set up at the kickoff festival.
