Demaryius Thomas, who played the majority of his 10-season National Football League career for the Denver Broncos and retired earlier this year with 724 catches for 9,763 yards, died Thursday at the age of 33, USA TODAY Sports confirmed early Friday morning.
Thomas played for the Houston Texans and New York Jets toward the end of his career, but said in June that he was retiring as a Denver Bronco.
Thomas won Super Bowl 50 with the Broncos and was a five-time Pro Bowler from 2012 to 2016.
