Denver’s home game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday was overshadowed by the death last week of former star Broncos’ wide receiver Demaryius Thomas.
The team marked off part of the sidelines with Thomas’ No. 88 and players kneeled in prayer and tribute.
Fans remembered the former star and ex-Broncos’ QB Peyton Manning and his family were on hand to pay their respects.
