ENGLEWOOD, CO – Everyone had wondered how a Peyton Manning-less NFL would look following his retirement earlier this year. The Broncos are still trying to figure out how that will look inside their own team.

Manning though teammate and friend, was a living legend in the world of football in an NFL locker room, so much so, the team is stuttering on claiming his old locker spot at the Broncos at their training facility.

Beyond the acquisition of Mark Sanchez, the Broncos are still without a starting quarterback with talks with Colin Kaepernick hauling earlier this month.

We don’t see anyone taking that locker spot anytime soon.
