Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning vehemently denies the claim of HGH use

An Al-Jazeera report claims that Peyton Manning was supplied human growth hormone (HGH) after his neck surgery in 2011. Manning, along with other noteworthy athletes, were named in the report as having received the hormone from the Guyer Institute located in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Former Guyer Institute employee Charlie Sly stated in the report that the hormone was repeatedly mailed to Manning’s home but addressed to his wife, Ashley Manning.

Peyton Manning vehemently denied the allegations of HGH use. A spokesperson for Peyton confirmed that Ashley was a patient at the clinic but did not offer further details as to the nature of her care. Peyton has also declined to provide further insight to his wife’s medical care.

Charlie Sly has since recanted his account insisting that he purposely fed false information to Liam Collins who was fitted with a hidden camera for the investigative report. Sly also confirmed that he was an employee at the Guyer Institute in 2013 and not in 2011 when Peyton Manning was a patient of the clinic. Al-Jazeera reporter Deborah Davies stands by the report and asserts that the report never claimed that Peyton Manning took the hormone.
