The free-agent quarterback arrived by Pat Bowlen's private plane about 1:35 p.m. today at the Centennial Airport. Accompanying Manning on the flight in were Broncos' front-office boss John Elway, head coach John Fox, general manager Brian Xanders and offensive coordinator Mike McCoy.
After departing the plane, Manning and the Broncos' contingency set off The Great Toyota Sequoia Chase.
A TV camera-equipped helicopter followed the Sequoia on its slow, short ride from the Centennial Airport to the Broncos' headquarters before the SUV disappeared into Bowlen's personal garage.
Driving the SUV was Fred Fleming, Bowlen's longtime assistant. Fox was in the front passenger seat.
Elway and Manning were in the back seat. Xanders and McCoy rode behind them.
