Louisville, Ky.-based Papa John’s signed an agreement with Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning to become one of its newest franchisee. Manning, in partnership with Papa John’s, will own 21 restaurants in the Denver area.

“It’s a smart investment now and will be long after I’m done playing football,” Manning says. “I’m particularly impressed by owner John Schnatter’s drive to make everything about Papa John’s better along with his ambition and plan to continue growing the brand around the world.”

Papa John’s operates restaurants in 32 countries and in September opened its 4000th location.
