The report from Pro Football Talk, which cited an unidentified "source with knowledge of the dynamics in Denver," said the team prefers to trade Tebow rather than release him.
"The visit was productive," a Broncos source told The Denver Post. "The team is hopeful and encouraged by the time spent" with Manning.
Manning's agent didn't accompany him to Denver. Manning is expected to announce his decision when free agency opens on March 13.
Manning met this week with Broncos officials, including executive vice president John Elway. No offer has been made. Still uncertain is Manning's ability to pass a physical exam coming off multiple neck surgeries.
Pro Football Talk identified the Jacksonville Jaguars as a potential landing spot for Tebow, a former first-round pick who was a star player at Nease High School in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., and the University of Florida.
Tebow would remain with the Broncos if Manning decides to sign elsewhere.
Manning, a free agent after being released by the Indianapolis Colts, flew to Phoenix on Saturday night for meetings with the Arizona Cardinals. After the Big Red, Manning reportedly is going to Florida to meet with the Miami Dolphins.
