Not everything was serious on Monday when the Broncos kicked off organized team activities.

Quarterback Peyton Manning met with the media yesterday to talk about working with his new teammates and the importance of OTAs following practice.

When rookie quarterback Brock Osweiler became the subject of discussion, things became interesting.

According to the team’s official website, Osweiler measures up at six-foot, seven inches tall — two inches taller than Manning.  One member of the media, 104.3 The Fan‘s Brandon Krisztal felt it necessary to point this out to Manning.

“Is it weird looking up to a taller quarterback,” asked Krisztal.  “That doesn’t happen too often, does it?”

“It happens to you all your life,” responded Manning, to roars of laughter.  “You’re actually right,” a short statured Krisztal admitted.

“You set yourself up for that,” laughed Manning before patting Krisztal on the head.  The video, unfortunately non-embeddable, can be viewed on NFL.com.
