托马斯在 NFL 打了 10 个赛季,其中大部分是在野马队,被认为是野马队历史上最好的外接手之一,赢得了两次亚足联冠军和超级碗 50 次。他入选了多个职业碗,历史第二在野马队历史上的接球码数。

根据野马队作家阿里克迪拉拉的说法,野马队球员将在周日在丹佛对阵底特律雄狮队的比赛中将托马斯的球队编号 88 作为他们头盔上的贴花。这个数字也被涂在丹佛的边线上。

体育场内将有一座托马斯纪念碑,位于名人堂广场的马雕塑底部。球队还将播放一段致敬托马斯的视频,并默哀片刻以纪念这位心爱的运动员。

周四,托马斯被发现死在乔治亚州罗斯威尔的家中。罗斯威尔警察局警官蒂姆·卢波在给美国有线电视新闻网的电子邮件中说,根据初步信息,他的死亡源于医疗问题。

野马队在一份声明中说:“我们被摧毁了,完全伤心欲绝。” “德马利乌斯的谦逊、温暖、善良和富有感染力的微笑将永远被那些认识他和爱他的人所记住。”

该团队已将托马斯的照片固定在其 Twitter 帐户的顶部。迪拉拉援引野马队主教练维克·方吉奥的话说,球队中仍有 10 名球员与托马斯一起踢球,球队中还有 40 多名工作人员和他身边的支持人员。

自从托马斯去世以来,全国各地的运动员纷纷向他致敬。

名人堂四分卫佩顿曼宁在丹佛与托马斯一起打了四个赛季,他说外接手比他是一名球员更好。

“他对待我的孩子就像对待自己的孩子一样,”他在野马队发表的一份声明中说。 “他参加了每个队友的慈善活动。周二我给 D.T. 发了短信。他在谈论我们在 2014 年对阵亚利桑那州时所说的 TD 音响。绝对被摧毁了。”

野马队的进攻截锋加雷特·博尔斯记得托马斯是如何欢迎他加入球队的。

“当我被选中时,他是第一批联系我的人之一,他在我手机上留下的信息仍然存在,”博尔斯周五说。 “我昨天玩了。我知道如果他今天在这里,他会告诉我的一件事就是‘继续工作'。”这是他一直做的一件事,他一直在工作,他一直是最努力的人。”

Denver Broncos honor Demaryius Thomas with memorial and tribute

(CNN)The Denver Broncos on Sunday will honor its former star wide receiver, Demaryius Thomas, who died suddenly last week at age 33.

Thomas played 10 seasons in the NFL, most of them with the Broncos, and is considered one of the best wide receivers in Broncos history, winning two AFC championships and Super Bowl 50. He was selected to multiple Pro Bowls and is second all-time in Broncos history in receiving yards.

Broncos players will wear Thomas' team number, 88, as a decal on their helmets during the game against the Detroit Lions in Denver on Sunday, according to Broncos writer Aric DiLalla. The number also has been painted on Denver's sideline.

There will be a memorial to Thomas at the stadium, at the base of the horse sculptures in Ring of Fame Plaza. The team will also show a video tribute to Thomas and hold a moment of silence to remember the beloved athlete.

Thomas was found dead at his home in Roswell, Georgia, on Thursday. Based on preliminary information, his death stemmed from a medical issue, officer Tim Lupo of the Roswell Police Department said in an email to CNN.

"We are devastated and completely heartbroken," the Broncos said in a statement. "Demaryius' humility, warmth, kindness and infectious smile will always be remembered by those who knew him and loved him."

The team has pinned a photo of Thomas to the top of its Twitter account. Dilalla quoted Broncos coach Vic Fangio as saying there are still 10 players on the team who played with Thomas, and more than 40 workers in the organization and among support staff who had been around him.

Tributes to Thomas have been pouring in from athletes around the country since his death.

Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning, who played four seasons with Thomas in Denver, said the wide receiver was a better person than he was a player.

"He treated my kids like they were his own," he said in a statement released by the Broncos. "He was there for every teammate's charity event. I texted with D.T. on Tuesday. He was talking about a TD audible we called vs. Arizona in 2014. Absolutely devasted."

Garett Bolles, a Broncos offensive tackle, remembered how Thomas welcomed him to the team.

"He was one of the first people to reach out to me when I got drafted, still have the message that he left on my phone," Bolles said Friday. "I played it yesterday. I know if he was here today, one thing he'd tell me is 'just keep working.' That's one thing he always did, he was always working, he was always the hardest worker."

CNN's Jill Martin, Keith Allen and Travis Caldwell contributed to this report.
