For the first time since they became teammates, Peyton Manning is throwing passes to Wes Welker.

Manning and Welker are working out with others at Duke University with Blue Devils coach David Cutcliffe, who was Manning's offensive coordinator at Tennessee.

Denver wide receivers Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas are also working out.

"There's certain guys you just feel like you have timing with right away," Manning said. "He's a guy that has a great feel for how to get open, and understands route concepts and, of course, he played in such a sophisticated offense there in New England, so he's a smart player. You can see why he's been such a productive player. He's intense. He loves to work."
