Reflections of a Championship Season: 1997 and the road to Super Bowl XXXII

The Denver Broncos organization and our Denver community were forever changed on April 22, 2010, when the Broncos selected Georgia Tech wide receiver Demaryius Thomas in the first round of the NFL Draft. Throughout the next eight-and-a-half seasons, D.T. etched himself into the Broncos' record book, as well as the hearts of his teammates, coaches and fans. "Demaryius Thomas: The Heart of a Legend" reflects on the unforgettable legacy of the late No. 88 and the impact he had on and off the field.
