The Denver Broncos have released a statement denying an Al Jazeera America report that quarterback Peyton Manning used Human Growth Hormone as part of his recovery from neck surgery in 2011.
Manning played for the Indianapolis Colts at the time. The statement released by the Broncos on Manning's behalf reads:
"The allegation that I would do something like that is complete garbage and is totally made up. It never happened. Never. I really can't believe somebody would put something like this on the air. Whoever said this is making stuff up.
