With the Denver Broncos seemingly headed toward a change of ownership, a familiar name has surfaced as a potential suitor: Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning.
Manning has reportedly been in close contact with multiple prospective ownership groups that are expected to be among the favorites to eventually gain control of the franchise from longtime owner Pat Bowlen, according to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports. Manning and his family have lived in Denver since he retired, with the two-time Super Bowl champion very much interested in taking a management position with the team as well.
