As you all know, Demaryius Thomas was the first receiver picked the 2010 draft. This Denver Broncos rookie has the size and talent to upgrade the Broncos passing game. Maybe his strongest trait is his maturity and focus. In a recent article, we find out that Demaryius could have ended up like many outcasts in our society. His family life was initially full of drugs and strangers with crack pipes entering his house. Lindsay H. Jones, of the Denver Post, provides a peek behind the curtain, so to speak, of this young man's journey from Montrose, Georgia to soon becoming a Denver Bronco and playing in the NFL.
Broncos rookie receiver Demaryius Thomas has run a tough route to success
It is a deeply moving story about this young man's ability to overcome seeing his mother and grandmother sent to prison at the age of 12, finding stability with extended family, and growing up to be successful in life and football. Take the opportunity to read the complete article because it will (or may if you are manly man . . . LOL) a tear to your eye and warmth to your heart.
Regardless of you are rooting for in the AFC West, this story brings positive energy about a man, who just happens to be a football player. DT will be success in life . . . period. We Broncos fans just hope he can be a success in Denver for years to come!
