The Patriots offered a response to questions about Tom Brady’s receiving corps with the signing of free agent Demaryius Thomas on Tuesday. The 31-year-old is a well-accomplished veteran and a former Super Bowl winner.
Selected by the Broncos in the first round of the 2010 draft, he caught 665 passes and 60 touchdowns in Denver (making the Pro Bowl four times) before he was traded to the Houston Texans in October of 2018.
His season was cut short by a torn left Achilles. This came after tearing his right Achilles in 2011 (though he returned in 2012 faster than expected).
