After a report linked Peyton Manning to past HGH use, the Broncos quarterback is now responding. 

Saturday night a report surfaced that Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning was the recipient of HGH back in 2011. He was named in a report, along with some other notable athletes, and things are not looking all that good at the moment for one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time.

Well, you figured that it wouldn’t take long for Manning to issue a response, and he didn’t really waste any time.

And as expected, he’s denying all the allegations vehemently.

We’re still in the beginning stages of all this, as the full report won’t even be shown until Sunday some time. However, it was really important for Manning to get out here and address this rather than dance around it. These are some pretty harsh allegations, and one of the last things that he would want is to see his legacy tarnished because of this.

In the report, it states that Manning received the HGH in 2011, although it didn’t go directly to him, rather the shipments were sent to his wife so Peyton wouldn’t be linked.

There’s still a lot more to come of all this, but again, it was important that Manning get out there in the public and address something as serious as this.
