Report: Broncos privately preparing to part ways with Peyton Manning
By John Breech | CBSSports.com
February 28, 2016 11:47 am ET
The "Peyton Manning Retirement Watch" officially went into circus mode on Saturday night when the Denver Post reported that Manning would likely be announcing his retirement by the end of the week.
Shortly after that though, the Broncos refuted the Post's report. According to the team, Manning hasn't made any decision about what he's going to do in 2016.
Manning's decision might not matter, though, because, according to FoxSports.com, the Broncos have basically already made the decision for him. Alex Marvez writes that it's "not a matter of if but when" the team and Manning will part ways.
Marvez also adds that the Broncos have been "prepping" to not have Manning back. He reports the team has several key free agents -- including Von Miller, Brock Osweiler and Malik Jackson -- and Denver entered negotiations this offseason with the understanding that Manning's $19 million cap hit won't be on the books in 2016.

it's a matter of the terms under which they part.

to retire. That' the only way "reporters" won't keep trying to uncover more dirt about his drug abuse and sexual harrasment, because you know darn well both were not isolated incidents.
