Demaryius Thomas – Important – Transaction
WR Demaryius Thomas was acquired by the Houston Texans from the Denver Broncos, the teams announced Tuesday. The Broncos will receive a fourth-round draft pick from the Texans in addition to the teams exchanging seventh-round selections. Ironically, Thomas and the Texans (5-3) will play the Broncos (3-5) in Denver on Sunday afternoon. The addition of the five-time Pro Bowl selection comes on the heels of Houston seeing wide receiver Will Fuller V tear the ACL in his right knee during Thursday’s 42-23 win over the Miami Dolphins. Rookie wideout Keke Coutee also has been dealing with a hamstring injury. Thomas, who was the longest tenured member of the Broncos, was second on the team in receptions (36) and receiving yards (402) and tied for the club lead in receiving touchdowns (three) this season.
