AceShowbiz - After winning the Super Bowl 50, Peyton Manning didn't clearly declare that the game would be his final game in the NFL. Instead, the Denver Broncos quarterback revealed some activities that he would do after the win.
In a post-game interview, Manning said that he would spend time with his family and drink a lot of Budweiser. "I'm going to take some time to reflect," Manning said. "I got a couple priorities first. I want to go kiss my wife and my kids, I want to go hug my family. I'm going to drink a lot of Budweiser."
The Broncos took home the Lombardi Trophy after defeating the Carolina Panthers with a final score of 24-10. The win was the 200th NFL victory for Manning, who has been playing in the league since 1998, 14 seasons with the Indianapolis Colts and 4 more with the Broncos.
Previously on Saturday night, Manning was very emotional when he met his teammates. Manning didn't say that Sunday would be his last game, but according to a source, Manning actually said it implicitly. "Both [Manning and DeMarcus Ware] were very emotional and near tears. Peyton told a few jokes to lighten the mood, but then he got very emotional," Broncos president Joe Ellis told ESPN. "And so did DeMarcus. The room was silent. It was a very emotional gathering."
