People don’t realize but Demariyus Thomas RIP used to sing the national anthem with Demarcus next to him on the sideline when they were on the broncos… this meant a lot more to Demarcus than we all think

[@zzdoodzz]

I figured there was a reason behind him wanting to perform, that's great to know. His rendition was, uhh, not very great, but the context and reason behind it, very meaningful.

[@Kimberlyfavored]

He sang that from his heart

[@jamesellis33]

Yeah, but it was terrible you people are such fakes.

[@taysomhill2841]

[@timstrumental7798]

DeMarcus is not the best singer, but I still think he did good! But coming from an instrumentalist myself, that pianist/keyboardist who accompanied him is incredible....I absolutely love the way he played! And football is back y'all; I'm so happy!!

[@mosijahi3096]

Yes I agree the pianist was the bomb - took Marcus through by the hand.

That was great! Just the courage to get out there is inspiring. I am relatively new to the world of singing, but I think it's obvious to any vocal teacher that he has a lot more potential to display. I imagine with his frame, he hasn't even tapped into his full resonance. God bless him for sharing his voice. I am sure a lot of kids are watching and being inspired.

They should do that more often. He wasn't Great or bad. He just sung it the way it is should be. I hate it when artists sing it and add runs to make it their own. It isn't their own. It is OUR anthem. All that could've been better is his voice could have been louder so stronger. I know he had to have had some nerves because that is very different than sacking the QB.
