The hottest free-agent in NFL history is reportedly heading to Denver. Numerous news agencies report all-pro quarterback Peyton Manning has instructed his agent to ink a new five year deal with the Broncos. The contract will be worth about $90 million.

Manning, 35, ended his 14-year career with the Colts about two weeks ago after a neck injur ended his 2011 season.

Manning says “nobody loves playing quarterback more than I do, and I still want to play.”

He has been given the green light to continue playing after extensive evaluation by physicians.

Manning’s decision leaves the future of Broncos QB Tim Tebow in doubt.

While Tebow led the team to some thrilling comeback victories, an 8-8 record and the American Football Conference West title, he was not an accurate passer and was more inclined to run the ball. Many observers expect Denver to trade Tebow.
