Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning was asked if he has anything to prove this year after missing the entire 2011 season after undergoing multiple neck procedures, he reponded by simply saying, “no.”
Manning did make it clear that he’s happy to be back on the field playing football again.
“It has been exciting for me to be back on the field,” Peyton said. “When you’re injured, it’s not fun. You’re kind of quarantined. It’s nice to be able kind of get the reins cut off, being able to participate in OTAs, minicamp.”
