Peyton Manning won't keep the Broncos guessing about his practice availability.

He's already set to practice in a limited capacity, according to Cameron Wolfe of the Denver Post. The Broncos expect him for on-field workouts on Wednesday.

Manning reportedly won't take part in full team drills. Instead, he'll watch from the sideline as Brock Osweiler quarterbacks the offense he once commanded.

It'll make for one strange dynamic when Manning is healthy enough to practice. Osweiler was appointed the Broncos' Week 14 starter, but he's subject to head coach Gary Kubiak's weekly review.

Manning has missed the last three weeks with a torn plantar fascia. There's no timetable set for his official return.
