Peyton Manning has officially sold off his stake in 31 Denver-area Papa John's stores -- and he completed the move just days before Papa and NFL broke up.
As we previously reported, Manning first acquired 21 locations back in 2012 -- and they CRUSHED IT in the first year, Employees called the sales boom the "Peyton Factor."
He acquired 10 more locations over the years -- but just last month, Manning decided to hang up his apron and leave Papa's pizza biz.
A rep for the company confirmed the move and described Manning's run with Papa's as six successful and rewarding years.
