"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Peyton Manning spoke to The MMQB's Peter King on Sunday, strongly denying a report from Al Jazeera&amp;nbsp;in which a former intern at an Indianapolis anti-aging clinic alleged&amp;nbsp;HGH was sent to the Broncos star\u2019s wife Ashley for use by the 14-time Pro Bowl quarterback.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CI can promise you this is a total fabrication,\u201D Manning told King over the phone, his voice rising and sometimes shaking. \u201CI simply do not understand how somebody makes up something like this and it becomes a story. And then the guy admits he made it up and it\u2019s still a story. How exactly does that work?\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 &lt;strong&gt;MORE NFL: How NFL and Peyton Manning could respond to accusations of HGH use&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The accusations were made by Charles Sly, who was an intern at the Guyer Institute and has since recanted all claims featured in the film \u201CThe Dark Side: Secrets of the Sports Dopers.\u201D&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Manning says he was a patient of the clinic in 2011 as he was recovering from a series of neck surgeries, but that all the treatments he underwent were allowed by the league.\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CEvery treatment I did, I did with the knowledge and cooperation of the Colts. Never did I do anything outside the rules. Damn straight I\u2019d never do anything outside the rules. I know how hard I\u2019ve worked to play in this league for 18 years. For this jerk [Sly] to insinuate I cut any corners, I cheated, I took shortcuts, is outrageous. Damn outrageous.\u201D\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;King spoke with Manning and Al Jazeera reporter Deborah Davies, who stands behind the network\u2019s report, for&amp;nbsp;Monday\u2019s column.
