It has been tremulous few days for veteran wideout Demaryius Thomas. The five-time Pro Bowler was first released by the New England Patriots over the weekend as part of roster cuts, only to be re-signed by the team several days later.

Thomas joined the Patriots in April on an incentives-loaded one-year deal and actually had a good showing in the preseason despite working his way back from an Achilles injury. He was especially productive in the team’s 29-31 loss to New York Giants on Friday, recording seven receptions for 87 yards and two touchdowns.

Despite this, New England released Thomas on Saturday in a series of moves that got their roster to 53 players. The 31-year-old didn’t sign with a new team in the coming days, and that’s when Pats came back calling when a roster spot opened due to rookie N’Keal Harry’s injury.

While we must assume that these were several nerve-wracking days for Demaryius Thomas, he still got something out of it. According to ESPN’s Field Yates, Thomas’ got a raise, and will now earn $1.5 million compared to $1.2 million on his previous contract.

Thomas spent the first eight and a half years of his career with Denver Broncos, managing to get a Super Bowl ring with the team in 2015. He was traded midway through 2018 season to Houston Texans, where he made 23 catches for 275 yards and two touchdowns in seven games.

As the NFL trade deadline approaches, we are starting to hear more rumors about possible deals that could happen before October 30th. One of the bigger names that were included in those rumors recently is Denver Broncos’ Pro Bowl receiver Demaryius Thomas.

According to NFL Insider Ian Rapaport, Broncos are looking to offload some of their star players after a bad start of the season, and Thomas is the prime candidate for that.
The 30-year- old himself is also well aware that his time in Denver could be over.

“How would you feel at your job [if] your boss, whoever, said they wanted you someplace else?” – said Thomas according to The Athletic. “And you come into work every day and have to think about it? How would you feel? But I had to do it for my team, like it was normal, act like it was normal. It just kept coming up, from left and right. … I had to think about it. … It’ll be interesting to see what happens in the next couple days.”

When asked about the odds of him actually being traded, Thomas said that they are “50-50” at this moment.

“I’ll be on a squad. I’ll be able to play ball,” – he added. “I’ll be able to do what I love. If it’s the Broncos, I would love it. But if it’s not, it’s a business. I gotta deal with it.“

Even though Denver Broncos are struggling in 2018, Demaryius Thomas has had a solid season so far. He caught 36 passes for 402 yards and three touchdowns.
