Peyton Manning to announce official retirement after 18 seasons

About 150 media, family and guests are expected to attend Manning’s retirement news conference Monday in the Denver Broncos’ team meeting room.

The Broncos media relations department is limiting seating and issued orange stickers to the invitation-only event.

The Broncos have a couple of framed Manning No. 18 jerseys, one home and one road, and a game ball to present to the quarterback that lists his accomplishments during his four seasons in Denver.

The team has also produced a glossy program especially for the goodbye news conference that features Manning hoisting the Lombardi Trophy following Denver’s 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers a month ago.
