I couldn’t even believe my eyes when I saw the news. Just a few years ago he was dominating the NFL and now he’s not here with us. RIP to a legend. I remember watching him when I was young and being amazed by his work ethic and passion for the game. He would never give up no matter what the score was. 🙏

Sad that the world lossed Demaryus Thomas so suddenly. May he rest in peace forever & his family & loved one's mourn but that they also find peace & rejoice afterwards knowing & trusting that his life's work assured him a place in Heaven. For me it's just heartbreaking to know that a man who took such care of his body will not be here on his birthday (Christmas Day) or to see his name & # enshrined in the Ring of Fame. He will have the best seat in the universe by God.

[@sonneversets3530]

@@johanmassy5290 None of us can ‘work’ our way into heaven. Nor can anyone be ‘good enough’ to get there on their own merits. Only by recognizing & accepting who Jesus Christ is...Our Risen Lord & Savior of the world...& asking Him to save us from ourselves, when we repent of our sins against a Holy God w/a sincere heart. Then are we made ‘righteous’ enough through Christ great sacrifice for us, to be accepted by our Holy Father in His great heaven. Who BTW, has ‘the best seat’ anywhere, by His Father, God. No One else is worthy.♥️ ✝️🕊🙌 Only God knows the heart of every man. And I so hope Demaryius has found perfect rest & peace w/Jesus now. Condolences & prayers to his undoubtedly heartbroken family, loved ones & friends.🙏

[@crushhlb4lb433]

I have been a bronco fan since 1985,and I can say this was one of my best choices in life was to be a fan of the greatest football organization of all time. I thank you DT for every moment you made me a happy fan. My heart pumps orange and blue 24/7,365 days of a year all the way to my grave. Congratulations on a tremendous career. And even more blessings on your next journey in life. Go broncos, orange crush for life.

[@billdover3165]

A Hall Of Famer as far as I'm concerned. I'm not a Broncos fan but DT was a truly great receiver and has an iconic playoff game and a ring and his stats are worth second ballot Hall of Fame entry. And I mean no disrespect when I say that. Truly. And this isn't even considering the fact that he was widely considered the greatest teammate and that's not even counting the fact that the stuff he did off the field and him and JJ Watt show everybody what it means to be a good person I definitely think that should be taken into account for his Hall of Fame entry. RIP Demaryius Thomas.

[@nellAx19]

Here after learning of his passing today. RIP DT, you were a beast and will be missed.

[@srivatsavyaddanapudi7772]

Started watchin football as a kid during tebow and DTs rookie years, it was kinda like we grew up together in a way I have his jersey and everything too. Watchin him throughout my childhood and him just ballin out he was my fav player for a while man I was a huge fan of his completely. The tebow catch, I remember the 509 catch toe tap on the sideline the entire 2013 year just every little thing about his time in Denver was special. Wish you well heading into retirement and I am happy that you seem to be at peace with this decision but hey maybe down the line a WR coaching gig would be nice but that is for another day. Thank you DT for your time and services on and off the field and for me specifically helping this kid grow u around the game like u did growing into a Pro Bowl wideout and wish u well in retirement (btw that's a beautiful place too I ain't gonna cap lol)

[@jeffreylorenger6746]

In my opinion demaryius thomas should make it into hall of fame. He only 237 yards short of that magic number of 10,000 yards and if baseball designated hitter Harold Baines made it (definitely not a great player) they basically might as well put everyone in it!!!
