Pro Bowl receiver and Super Bowl champion Demaryius Thomas, who played nine seasons for the Broncos, died Thursday, according to police in Roswell, Ga.
The police said Thomas was found deceased in his home. Preliminary information is that his death stems from a medical issue and investigators have no reason to believe foul play was involved.
According to the police report provided to The Denver Post on Friday morning, officers arrived at Thomas’ residence at 6:59 p.m. and were escorted to a bedroom shower where they found Thomas “lying down in the shower on his back.” The Roswell Fire Dept. arrived on scene and pronounced Thomas dead. Thomas’ body was transported by the Fulton County Medical Examiner to their office.
Thomas, who played for the Broncos from 2010-18, and whose on-field performance was matched only by his popularity among teammates, coaches and fans, was 33 years old.
