Manning Returns To Practice: Broncos Notebook Dec. 16, 2015

Post practice update:

Gary Kubiak:
-Peyton looked fine today, but he will not play this week.
-Kubiak not going to talk about next week, just focused on Steelers.
-Kubiak said he will evaluate what he sees in practice, because all players want to play, so he expects Peyton to have same attitude. Said he will compare to what he remembers seeing from Manning before the Green Bay game.

Brock Osweiler:
-Good to have Peyton back and practicing.
-Not focused on future and things out of his control, just on Steelers.
-Weird to see Manning with scout team, but just did what he was told and worked with the first team.

Emmanuel Sanders:
-No disrespect to Brock, but it was good to see Manning back because good to see any player return from injury.
-On who plays QB the rest of the season: just going to do his job and make plays regardless of who starts.

Peyton Manning returned to practice today. Taking part in the throwing drills the media was present for. During the brief walk-thru, Brock Osweiler was still with the starters (and was announced as the starter for the week yesterday.)

No QB was listed as speaking at the podium today, we will see if either is available in the locker-room after practice. (Or brought to the podium).
