'He had the biggest heart': How Emmanuel Sanders honors Demaryius Thomas' legacy of helping children

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING. 1A and 1B.

"You got the duo up here," Emmanuel Sanders said with a smile as he and Demaryius Thomas stood at a podium inside Paul Brown Stadium in 2016. "The one-two punch."

The two wide receivers had just put up 217 yards and three touchdowns in a 29-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals -- one of many impressive performances they had as Denver Broncos teammates from 2014 to 2018.

They became the seventh pair of wide receivers to each have three straight 1,000-yard seasons and won Super Bowl 50 with quarterback Peyton Manning.
