Report: Peyton Manning to play against Kansas City Chiefs

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning will reportedly play against the Kansas City Chiefs this week after a scan gave him the all-clear from a potential ankle injury.

Manning took a hit low to his ankles during his side's win over the San Diego Chargers on Sunday and was slow to get up.

He later admitted that he would have to undergo an MRI scan to determine the damage.

However, that scan showed that there was no major cause for concern for the Broncos, who face a crucial AFC West divisional clash with the Chiefs this week, reports NFL Network.

The Broncos are 8-1 in their season following their win over the Chargers, but are still second in their division.
