It is pretty clear how Demaryius Thomas is going to handle his situation with the Denver Broncos; they will not see him until they put a reasonable, long-term contract in front of him.
Thomas has not signed his franchise tag deal that would net him $12.82 million this season, and has not shown up for mandatory workouts according to denverpost.com.
In this situation, Thomas has very little power. He can hold out from workouts and not sign a deal all the way up until July 15th.
If the Broncos and Thomas have not reached a deal by July 15th, he will be playing the 2015 season at his franchise tag number for the Broncos.
