Peyton Manning, who was recently cut by the Indianapolis Colts, will resume his illustrious career with the Denver Broncos, the National Football League's website reported on Monday.

The 11-time Pro Bowl quarterback and four-time NFL Most Valuable Player, who missed the 2011 season after neck surgery, was cut by Indianapolis on March 7 after a 14-year stint where he smashed the franchise's major passing records and won a Super Bowl.

NFL.com, citing an unnamed league source, said Manning told the Broncos on Monday he would sign with them.
