- Broncos QB Brock Osweiler Speaks Out About Peyton Manning -
"Denver Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler was on Yahoo! Sports radio, and he really opened up about his role with the team and his relationship with Peyton Manning.
While the last three years have gone by incredibly fast (in my opinion), I can’t really imagine what it’s like to be in Osweiler’s shoes, basically getting drafted into a situation where your role is to prepare as though you’re going to start at some point, perhaps any given week, you just have no idea when.
That’s the curse — and blessing — of having a future Hall of Famer in front of you on the depth chart. Peyton Manning is a living legend. The players on the Broncos know that, and there have even been some rumors that it’s hard for them to treat him as just another ‘one of the guys’ but for the most part, it seems like everyone generally gets along with the Sheriff and that includes his protege Brock Osweiler."
“I’d be lying to you if I said it hasn’t been tough to not play over the past three years,” Osweiler said, “but the one thing I do know is that I’m going to work on a daily basis with one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game and I guess I really just want to make the most of that situation.” ...
“The one thing that I really have taken away from him and I probably hold dearest is how to be a professional on a daily basis. Whether that’s on the football field, off the football field as far as maybe a charity event goes, in the classroom and just being an overall leader. Peyton really showed me how to be a professional in this league.”
