Indianapolis Colts QB Peyton Manning has been putting in extra time working one-on-one with his new rookie receivers, first-round pick Anthony Gonzalez and fifth-rounder Roy Hall. Manning speaks highly of Gonzalez in particular, saying "I think it's important to spend some time with the young guys one-on-one and try to give them the ins and outs of our offense. But you kind of know what you're going to get with Gonzalez. He's made a lot of plays in college."
"Peyton likes new people," Colts coach Tony Dungy confirmed Thursday. "He's taken these new guys, just like he did some of our guys last year. He'll do that all the time. He understands that's what football is all about. [It's] bringing people in and getting them ready to go so that when you need them, they're ready. "And we had that situation last year, not necessarily with the receivers, but with some of our offensive linemen and tight ends and [running back] Joseph Addai. So you want to get those guys ready to go as quick as possible. And he [Manning] believes in that. He's going to help those guys as much as he can."
