One day, Blair White was texting good luck wishes to Bennie Fowler and Peyton Manning, the next day Fowler and Manning were winning Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos, and the day after that they were cleaning out their lockers in Denver.
That’s when Fowler approached Manning with what may end up the last football thrown by Manning in an NFL game. Fowler had caught it for a 2-point conversion in the Broncos’ 24-10 win over Carolina in the Super Bowl, and he had held on to it for the trip from Santa Clara, Calif.
