As the country continues to battle COVID-19, former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning took some time on Monday to create a video of encouragement for the medical staff at University of Colorado Hospital.
‘Hi, this is Peyton Manning,” the former QB says in the video, as if anyone could mistake him for someone else, “and I went to send a heartfelt message of appreciation to all the doctors, nurses and staff at UCHealth. You are all working endless hours to keep us safe and healthy and I can’t even imagine how we would make it through this without you.
“Please know that all of you are in my prayers, you have my gratitude and that of an entire community. Stay safe, stay strong and thank you again for your tremendous work and efforts.”
Manning previously donated blood at Children’s Hospital Colorado, made a donation to HelpColoradoNow.org and donated 500 meals for healthcare workers and first responders in Indianapolis, Indiana.
During his time as a QB in the NFL, Manning won Super Bowls with the Colts and Broncos. He is the only starting QB in NFL history to have won a Super Bowl with two different teams.
