Broncos News: Peyton Manning Plans To Return To Denver In 2015

The Denver Broncos wanted quarterback Peyton Manning to take his time to determine if he wanted to come back next season, but it appears he doesn't need to take that long.

Woody Paige of the Denver Post reports that Peyton intends to come back to the team for a fourth season as long as he passes his annual physical.

Manning had multiple neck surgeries before joining the team, and he has checked every year to ensure his neck can still withstand the demands of playing in the NFL. He also had two thigh injuries that he played through at the end of the year, which severely hampered his play.

The Broncos need a definite answer from Manning by March 9, when his $19 million base salary for 2015 becomes fully guaranteed.

Manning passed for 4,727 yards and 39 touchdowns this past season, helping Denver secure the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs before losing to the Indianapolis Colts in the Divisional Round.
