It has been a fairly accepted notion that the Broncos will release Peyton Manning this offseason if he decides to postpone retirement for another year.

Those interested in his services? The Los Angeles Rams.

Rams have had internal discussions about bringing Peyton Manning to LA should he want to play another season:… https://t.co/fs1jHQ1Evw — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) February 3, 2016

Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Rams have had internal discussions about bringing in the soon to be 40-year-old quarterback. They have been keeping a close watch on the situation, and are open to keeping Manning as an option next season if he is still wanting to play.

Case Keenum is currently scheduled to lead the Rams as the starting quarterback, with Pac-12 representatives Nick Foles and the Sean Mannion employed as backups. Yes, mediocrity runs deep within their depth chart.

The future of Manning has been a hot topic over these past few days as we build up to Super Bowl 50. He was overheard telling Patriot’s coach Bill Belichick that this was his “last rodeo,” and it is likely that he ends his 18-year NFL career after this Sunday’s matchup with the Carolina Panthers.

Either way, it sounds like his playing career will expire somewhere within the 155,959 square miles of California, preferably hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.
