ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peyton Manning and Demaryius Thomas are on the field together for the first time in 201 days as the Denver Broncos kick off training camp.

Thomas skipped the Broncos’ offseason program in a contract stalemate before signing a five-year, $70 million deal earlier this month.

When Manning reported to camp he told the Broncos’ website he’s happy for Thomas, saying “he deserves his new contract. He’s earned every cent of it and I know he will continue to earn it over the course of his career.”

Thomas said his goal is to break the NFL’s single-season receiving record of 1,964 yards even though the Broncos are switching to Gary Kubiak’s two-tight end, run-heavy offense.

Kubiak said he loves that bravado.
