Osweiler Named Broncos’ Starter for Sunday

He isn’t anticipated to play this weekend-Brock Osweiler continues to be the starter, however in all probability not for lengthy.

Currently, the Broncos are first in the American Football Conference (AFC) West with a 10-3 record.

Peyton has retuned to practice this week, but Brock Osweiler will get the start against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning has missed the past four weeks with a plantar fascia tear in his left foot.

For at least one more week, Kubiak doesn’t need to answer those questions.

Meanwhile, Archie Manning told WDSU-TV in New Orleans that his son’s foot has been bothering him “five or six months”.

The Broncos are heading to Pittsburgh this Sunday to take on the Steelers. Kubiak said in November that Manning would start when healthy.

Kubiak added that having Friday’s practice outside after two days inside the Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse had no impact on the decision to hold him out.

Mallett humbled by release:What could have been the lowest – and last – point in Ryan Mallett’s National Football League career, his October release from the Houston Texans, was one he said was necessary for him to fully embrace his new opportunity with the Ravens.

According to the report, Manning won’t return to the active roster until he’s able to get “real backup reps” in practice.

“It is a trying time for Peyton Manning, who has always been a starter his entire career”, Rapoport said on NFL GameDay Morning.

After working back into practice this week, doing well on Wednesday and Thursday, Manning sat out on Friday due to soreness in his injured left foot. Manning worked under center, throwing out of the shotgun formation and showing what appeared to be good progress, the Denver Post reported. “We thought he would be ready to go, ” Kubiak said. “We’ll have a plan in place by the time we get to Wednesday, but we’ll see where we’re at today, and kind of take it a day at a time”. “I have a lot of faith in both of those guys”, Green said. Osweiler lost for the first time last week, 15-12 against Oakland, and was sacked five times.

Manning has not put up great numbers this season with just nine touchdowns and 17 interceptions in nine games, but the team is expected to have him back in the starting lineup once he is healthy.
