Manning will stay back in Denver to continue rehab

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peyton Manning is staying back in Denver when the Broncos travel to Chicago this weekend so he can continue getting treatment on a variety of ailments. He has company in DeMarcus Ware, who's staying behind to keep rehabbing his bad back.

"You can go out there and sit in the cold or you can get two extra days of treatment to speed up your recovery," Ware said. "So, that's what we're doing."

Excused from meetings and practices this week so he could concentrate on getting healthy, Manning made a cameo appearance at Friday's practice and watched Brock Osweiler get ready for his first NFL start.
