On Friday, EA Sports revealed ratings of wide receivers and tight ends for Madden NFL 13. Denver’s Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker received considerable rating jumps from the 2011 version of the game. Among receivers, Thomas was ranked 62nd, with an overall rating of 81 (+8 from last year).  Thomas’ speed (96), acceleration (92) and […]

Nobody in Denver is more excited about the arrival of quarterback Peyton Manning than third-year receivers Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker. And for good reason. Thomas caught 32 passes for 551 yards and four touchdowns last season while Decker hauled in 44 passes for 612 yards and eight touchdowns.  With Manning under center, those numbers […]

During practice earlier today, wide receiver Demaryius Thomas appeared to have suffered a minor finger injury.  Though alarming, the injury was indeed minor. “(Thomas) had a little finger jam, and that’s all part of the game,” coach John Fox told media members after practice Tuesday. Thomas and his teammates will be back on the field […]

Broncos’ oft-injured third year wide receiver Demaryius Thomas may have scarcely avoided disaster during Denver’s first minicamp session of the offseason on Tuesday.  During practice, a ball deflected off of Thomas’ hand and caused the receiver to head towards the sideline while favoring one of his fingers. Fortunately, Thomas returned to practice after being checked out by […]

The woman who accused former Denver Broncos cornerback Perrish Cox of sexual assault has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages against Cox and current Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas, according to The Associated Press.  Cox was acquitted of all charges in March, and has since signed with the San Francisco 49ers. Thomas is entering his third season with the Broncos and is undoubtedly regretting hanging […]

Wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (6-3, 235 lbs.) had surgery on a finger roughly two weeks ago, which is why he hasn’t been playing catch with Eric Decker and Peyton Manning in Denver.  In an interview with alibi.com‘s Adam Fox last week, Thomas said he’ll return to Denver when he can catch again. “I was just waiting to get […]

Much was made about Tebow’s ability to complete passes in 2011, not much was made about the Broncos receivers’ ability to catch them.

Overheard once in a Denver press box in regards to Tebow’s unique throwing style and the ability to hang on to said ball, “Have you ever caught a knuckleball?” Touché anonymous man, touché.

Given that Thomas and Decker have both spent two seasons more or less catching Tebow’s passes–unique or not– they should have the apparent uncanny ability to do so. It did look as though Brandon Marshall had returned to the lineup at several points in the season during last minute Tebow drives however.

During a team scrimmage at Sports Authority Field at Mile High on August of 2010, Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow hit receiver and fellow rookie Demaryius Thomas on a beautiful fade route for a touchdown. Witnessing the event live, I hoped it was a sign of things to come. Just over a year later, the two […]

It’s the first return to practice in weeks for cornerback Champ Bailey and defensive tackle Marcus Thomas. Another big-named Bronco who missed game action Sunday also returned to practice: defensive end Elvis Dumervil. All three attended the portion of practice open to the media Wednesday, the Denver Post reports. Missing practice were Eddie Royal, Julius […]

The Denver Broncos receiving depth just took another hit. According to Mike Klis of the Denver Post, slot receiver Eddie Royal will miss up to four weeks with a groin injury while “receiving” tight end Julius Thomas will also miss at least two weeks with a high ankle sprain. This leaves the Broncos with Eric […]
