Shane Ray participates in first OTAs, Peyton Manning rests

The Broncos were thin on participants as Week 2 of organized activities opened Monday. But they did have a key player back in a helmet.

Shane Ray, the Broncos' first-round draft pick who has been recovering from a turf toe injury he sustained in January, went through blocking-sled and footwork drills Monday, his first on-field activity of the offseason.

Coach Gary Kubiak said the plan was to slowly reintegrate Ray into the team's workouts so he had time to fully rehabilitate the toe, something he wasn't able to do with pre-draft workouts.

"I hate watching," Ray said.
