Broncos sticking with Osweiler but Manning might practice
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) – Brock Osweiler remains the Denver Broncos’ starting quarterback but Peyton Manning might practice this week for the first time since mid-November.
Then again, maybe he’s not ready.
Coach Gary Kubiak didn’t have a lot of answers regarding his QB situation when he met with the media Monday afternoon.
He said he’d been too busy watching film of Denver’s 15-12 loss to Oakland and meeting with the team to get together with Manning or the medical staff and determine this week’s plan for No. 18.
Manning has been sidelined for a month with a left foot injury. He resumed throwing last week on his own under the watchful eyes of the strength and conditioning staff. But he has yet to practice with the team since having his hard cast removed and ditching his walking boot two weeks ago.
The Broncos play Sunday at Pittsburgh.
