Peyton Manning has a new mile-high contract: The just-released Colts quarterback, who turns a semi-creaky 36 years old on Saturday, has inked a $96 million deal with the Denver Broncos that will keep him tied up until he's an even creakier 41-year-old, reports ESPN, citing inside sources. The Broncos have scheduled a 3pm ET press conference in which they'll announce the five-year deal, which will put a certain über-religious QB out of work.
