Report: Manning has talked with Broncos suitors

The sale of the Broncos “could be fast-tracked to be completed by the spring,” with a formal vote “not out of the question” by March's NFL league meetings. Sources said that Peyton Manning, who is “very interested in a potential ownership piece in the franchise and a possible role in serving in a management position,” has already had "discussions with several of the groups expected to be favorites to land the team.” Several sources said that, "barring something totally unforeseen," a new owner “would be fully on board” by the October ownership meetings next year. Ownership sources said if it the price approaches $3B, it could “spur other owners in some more metropolitan locales” to begin to "float their potential interest" to sell (CBSSPORTS.com, 12/19).
