Emerica Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Wow terrible news to wake up to. The guy genuinely looked like a tremendous human being. Very sad, RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronjon1990 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Very sad. Just a bit older than I am. Really awful news to ever hear, but especially this close to a family holiday. Things like this really hit a bit harder (moreso to the onlookers, I don't think it matters "when" to friends and family really) this time of year.

RuskieTitan Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Devastating news to hear. He was one of my favorite players in the league for a stretch of time. Gone way too young. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sad, RIP If anybody is interested, read this. One of the best ESPN pieces/stories out there. DT was incredibly soft spoken so he never got the national spotlight probably like he should have. This story gives you a great background of who he is. It was after reading this that he became on of my favorite players to root for http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/11830457/denver-broncos-demaryius-thomas-dreams-reuniting-estranged-family Edited December 10, 2021 by AkronsWitness 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Very sad news. I read that he had just retired this spring. Demaryius was on the receiving end of one of my favorite overtime playoff game-winning plays of all time. May he rest in peace. I know it is being reported that his death was related to a previous car accident, but I'm wondering if any of it was also heart related. There has been a fairly large number of perfectly healthy young athletes who have died recently from heart issues. It's very strange. Just speculating, as I have no way of knowing whether this was the case with Demaryius. Edited December 10, 2021 by Uncle Buck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeptunePenguins Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Damn, this is awful. He was one of the best receivers in the game when I really first started watching the game around 2012 or so. That's way too young to go. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 He was a pretty raw, high potential guy coming out of GT and I was a big fan of his, but never expected him to have the prolific career he had in the NFL. RIP DT, gone way too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of anti-vaxxers on twitter trying to link this death to the vaccine, I was just checking that these attitudes aren't creeping on to FF. Let's be clear, he passed away tragically due to medical issues associated with his car accident two years ago. Not a suicide, no foul play and absolutely nothing to do with the vaccine. This is nothing other than a heartbreaking tragedy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
