Peyton Manning Shocks At Broncos Practice By Showing Off Running Skills

Peyton Manning shocked everyone at a Denver Broncos practice on Saturday with some new moves. The quarterback is known for his lack of mobility on the field, but his decision to run the ball during a play instead of throwing it left some jaws open on the sidelines, NESN reported.

"Reactions to Peyton Manning running the ball? Priceless," NFL/Broncos writer Nicki Jhabvala for the Denver Post Tweeted on Saturday. The post featured a photo from the 39-year-old quarterback's play and with photoshopped arrows pointing out each surprised reaction from Broncos staff as they watched from the sidelines.

During the play on day eight of Broncos training camp, Manning rolled out and ran along the right sideline during the play and gained a first down, according to the Denver Post. Then he followed up with another rollout and an over-the-shoulder pass connected with Broncos tight end Owen Daniels and Daniels scored the touchdown. His moves were so great that they were a highlight of the day and even impressed Broncos coach Gary Kubiak.

"(Offensive coordinator Rick Dennison) had him on the move like a young man today," coach Kubiak told the Denver Post. "We tried to work him good today."
