Wes Welker Has Spoken With Manning, Brady Since Broncos Signing

Wes Welker said Tuesday in an interview with Mike and Mike In The Morning on ESPN Radio that he's had a chance to speak with new teammate Peyton Manning since joining the Denver Broncos. "We just kind of caught up and talked about the year and different things about the offense and stuff like that," Welker said.

"I'll be working with him next week and start to get that process going," said Welker, who signed a two-year, $12 million contract with the Broncos last month.

Welker also mentioned that he has spoken with former teammate Tom Brady since his departure from New England. "Tom's one of my good friends, and we stay in contact quite often," Welker said.

The 31-year-old receiver told ESPN that he sees similarities between the two quarterbacks.

"I think they're both extremely accurate ... they're extremely smart players and have a good idea where the rush is, and moving around and buying time and getting the ball out quick and being smart and putting it right on the money."
