ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Carlos Henderson Jersey . -- Peyton Manning was back at practice for the Denver Broncos on Thursday, listed as "limited" on the injury report but looking more and more like a sure thing to play Sunday. "He practiced a good bit and looked like he was doing the things he needs to do for us," interim head coach Jack Del Rio said. Manning missed practice Wednesday to get more treatment on the right ankle he aggravated when Chargers defensive lineman Corey Liuget dove at the quarterbacks lower legs toward the end of last Sundays game. Both Del Rio and Manning have insisted Manning will play Sunday when the Broncos (8-1) host the Chiefs (9-0) with first place in the AFC West on the line. On Wednesday, Manning said sitting out of practice was not his preference but something he had to do in the best interest of the team. Del Rio agreed with that view. "He did the smart thing, did a little extra time yesterday and continues to do his thing with preparation," Del Rio said. "Hes tremendous with that and its well-documented. Good player whos back at practice and is getting ready to play a good team." Offensive co-ordinator Adam Gase said Manning missing a Wednesday practice -- the way many veterans do, especially later in the season -- wouldnt affect Denvers preparation. "When you have Peyton back there, he knows this offence in and out," Gase said. "Him running one more rep of a play hes run 4,000 times, thats really not going to make the difference of what were doing. The big day is today and tomorrow, making sure that Saturday were nice and clean going into the game." Meanwhile, Mannings absence gave backup Brock Osweiler a chance to get reps with the first team. "Those are huge for him," Gase said. "The only thing that could be better for him is if hes ever in a game and hopefully we can hold that tenure for a while."
