DenverBroncos.com caught up with defensive lineman Robert Ayers after he finished his workout on Tuesday.

Here’s what he had to say about his 2012 offseason thus far:

On his offseason
“I’ve been here for the most part working out. I’ve traveled a couple places, but for the most part I’ve been here.”

On his travels
“I went to a few places – Jamaica, went to New York for a little bit. Nothing major, but went to a few places.”

On getting back to working out in a team setting
“It’s cool. I like being around the team and starting to learn and work as a unit and starting to get on the same page and working hard. That’s the best part about playing football is being around a team and working out together and getting to have that bond and friendship with one another.”

On the Broncos drafting an interior defensive lineman with their first draft pick
“He’s definitely a very good player and he fits our mold – just from what I’ve watched of him. He seems like he has the type of attitude that we look to have on defense and I think he’ll fit right in.”

On whether the Peyton Manning signing excites him as a defensive player
“Oh definitely. When you know you have a quarterback like that who can put up points and always be consistent and be able to keep you off the field, that’s a great feeling as a defensive player.”
