![[2012] Stephen A. roasts Skip on #TebowFreeTV day | First Take](/img/tr.png)
Tim Tebow is a man of God I love how he didn’t focus on his football career but DT as a person
W pfp and username 😂
He was✝️
Well unlike most broadcasters Tebow actually knew Thomas personally
If he was actually a man of god he would point out the fact that it isn’t a coincidence his birthday is Christmas and died at 33 like Jesus
@@JoshG-rv2pq Any real Christain would know Christmas is an observation of Jesus's birthday. Secondly he was literally 16 days from 34.
Tebow is a class act he respected the guy character rather than his game.
He played with him so he would know. Knew him personally.
Demaryius made Tebow’s career
@@HHHPedigrees Incorrect that would be Skip Bayless.
As a broncos fan this was so devastating to see, completely unexpected. The best broncos WR in my lifetime. Part of one of the biggest plays and some of the best teams in franchise history. Hard to say goodbye so soon
Now Darrant Williams has someone to play with up there
Fellow hard Broncos fan here too Man I didn’t even believe it when I scrolled through my feed on IG I thought people was playing especially in this era of social media but he def was one of the best in that era that SAS mentioned and it was fun playing with him on madden 25 too. Dude was nice fr. Shine in peace DT ⚜️🤴🏿
Same
it was a gut punch to broncos country
Yes I live in Denver and he was beloved here He sould have retired a Bronco.
Man he was so young. So much fun to watch. Rest In Peace to a legend…
People always go young at least the good ones life is very unfair like that
@@darnellwilliams8783 and in the most unexpected way at that as well like it’s not naturally grow of old age and die to natural causes anymore it’s sad
@@jaysaiuniverse8628 seizures ain’t no joke it’s really sad, had a friend who suffered from random seizures had to call him after I heard of DT passing. You never know how much you miss someone till they are gone
Tim Tebow was the right man to speak on how we should remember DT, gone way too soon
How he died
@@joeljohnson6137 seizure, had a bad fall that led to his death
I know Peyton Hurting too…DT use to call him Sir and looked at him and treated him almost like a Dad figure also thanked him every single game for coming to the broncos and changing his life
Heart breaking
Tim Tebow to Demaryius Thomas was the best play of all time. I know Stephen A is a steelers fan and he had nightmares but wow that play made him a legend. When Peyton Manning was his QB, he was a top 5 receiver in the NFL, he would've gotten bigger numbers but Broncos sucks at drafting QBs after Manning retired.
No - no it wasn't.
"all time" 😒
It's an opinion. Calm yourselves
It’s really nice to see the positive vibes and remembrance. Despite how tragic this is, you see everyone smiling and finding joy from DT’s life.
How is this positive thinks tragic smh
@@darnellwilliams8783he didnt say that. He said its nice to see the positive vibes. SMH. Learn how to read dude.
Did he just have a COVID Booster??
Finding the joy in the memories is what DT would have wanted. It’s what anyone that joins the Lord wants for their loved ones
Not even just because he’s gone but he was still the most under appreciated players from the early 2010s
so underrated...can't stop crying
Not to real football fans.
Definitely a hof
Not a Broncos fan, but living in Denver. I was at a downtown bar and grill on 16th Street when the breaking news came on the screen. I hadn’t seen a crowd go from active to somber since January of 2020. People were really shaken by it. Gone way too soon 😭
One of my favorite receivers ever I can’t believe this, Rest easy DT
Why is everyone acting so shocked after what Happedn To Kobe and GI GI .nothing in this world shocks me Tommorow is not promised losing Kobe and GI Gi taught me I can go and day at any moment
@@darnellwilliams8783 still doesn’t make it any easier when we lose someone
Steelers fan here. So much respect Demaryius Thomas. Rest in peace DT
Not really a Tebow fan but his words in remembrance of his friend and former teammate Demaryius Thomas were complete and total class. Rest in peace Demaryius Thomas and thank you Tim Tebow for your incredibly compassionate statement about his passing
Why aren’t you a fan of Tebow? He’s done more good in the world then 99% of other humans that exist
@@youtubeaccount7342 It's not really that I don't like Tebow, it's more the bootlickers of his that praise his every move just because he attaches his religious beliefs to everything he does (I don't hold anything against him for his promotion of his beliefs but these same fanboy bootlickers largely also criticize others who use their athletic platform to promote their personal beliefs...I think they've been known to say things like "shut up and dribble", have you ever heard that one?...So, they're a curious sort of hypocritical bootlickers)...and I also really don't like the victim card his bootlicking groupies play every time he's unable to continue his athletic career because he's simply not talented enough to earn that roster spot.
@@nlabanok So he loves God. God wants you to praise him every chance you get. Obviously him being a Christian made him a better person
@@chriskimmel7252 and you totally missed the point he was making
@@Cardiaccat98 Thanks Joshua...isn't it entertaining when you put a mirror up for people to see themselves and they're so captive of their own thoughts they can't even see themselves in the mirror?
I am crying my way through this comment section. But it’s so heartwarming to know that DT touched so many people so deeply. We will never forget.
Tim Tebow so well spoken.. Can't believe it about D.T
He overcame a lot of adversity and became a incredible player. Reading stories on him last night he was just a good man. Rest in peace DT 🙏🙏
Tebow makes it real and genuine with DT and brings the fans a perspective that shows how much he meant off the field as well as well.
Demaryius Thomas was my version of the great Rod Smith . I was able to experience the later years of Rod but I was much younger to truly appreciate his play. Demaryius will always be my favorite Broncos receiver and no one will ever be able to take away those dominant moments he had. From the one handed grab in the back of the endzone against the Chiefs, to of course the famous 80 yard catch and run...Rest easy D.T. We'll miss you.
Rod Smith is the greatest Bronco Wr but he wasn't fast like Demaryius. Demaryius could return kickoffs
So happy to see Tebow here. Him and Demaryius had some great moments when they played together.
Chiefs fan in tears here was so schooled to see this as I was closing for work. Dude is a legend will always be. Rest easy 🙏🏻
DT was the epitome of what NFL players should be. Not just immensely talented, but so humble and giving of his time and energy.
He was always present at his teammates’ charity functions, as well as championing his own causes. He always loved the Broncos fans, even though the Broncos did him wrong.
By all indications, DT really was a better human being than he was a Wide Receiver.
Man only 33 crazy how life has been these last 2 years for people around the world losing lost ones.
Exactly its not even surprising anymore every week its someone
Another blood sacrifice.......
Christ also died at 33.
DT was born on December 25 (CHRISTMAS)
Reverse Full Reduction of "Demaryius Thomas" = 88 - the number he is known wearing most of his career.
It's super deep....
60 time increase among athletes. For ex., 180 young and healthy fifa players gone in six months…head outta the sand people…the jab
You can feel the held tears from Tim Tebow for a brother and legend gone too soon. Always show love and appreciation because any second we can drop dead. ❤️ Rest in paradise Thomas
I can only imagine Peyton Mannings reaction. I felt Tim on this one
Sincere condolences and prayers to his family and friends.
Condolences
Well said Tebow, lost a great friend yesterday who was very similar to who Tebow described. Lifes to short.
A very humble player on the field, and respectful
As a bronco fan this hurts really bad he was my favorite wr that played for Denver so sad
It hurts NO DOUBT!! Especially when it was a really good person, and a young person, but there is no doubt in my mind that God was/is with D.T. Very very sad though. But who is PROMISED another day to live for certain?
Dam how old are you you probably never heard of Rod Smith or Ed McCaffrey.
He was mine too his speed was crazy
@@johndavis6719 he said favorite not greatest
My his soul rest in peace🙏🏼
Molly is such a genuine soul. I heard her heart catch in her throat
Gone too soon 😭🙏🏾
Well said Tebow. When DT left the Broncos it broke my heart, this morning my heart was broken... completely. I'll cherish my DT 88 jersey. 😢
Heart broken. This man gave me so many joyful memories
I am 47 and I am surprised that I am still alive. Seeing this here makes me think about being here tomorrow.
Why are you surprised?
Same and I'm 30
@@aidanreilly9540 bruh that’s none of your business bruh🤦♂️
STAY AWAY FROM THE VAXXX AND MSM‼️🚩🚩🚩
True, the jab..60 time increase among athletes. Dropping like flies. For ex., 180 young and healthy fifa players gone in six months….
It's kind of hard to see that 1987-2021....gone way too soon. My condolences to his family, friends, and teammates
Was in class today and my teacher told me this, I was in disbelief and still don’t believe he’s dead, I’m a cowboys fan and I was watching that game against New England and ever since that day I’ve been so high on him and I told everyone he’s that guy, Rest in Paradise DT
Rest In Peace champ 💪
To all of the Thomas family and to broncos country I know how this feels. Just six months ago my father passed away at the age of 76. 🙏❤ to all who are hurting and just know that you are not alone.
I'm a bengals fan but remember that iconic play against pittsburgh and I was a fan from then on out Rest in Power DT🙏
gotta feel especially for tebow being a former teammate of his and having an iconic playoff moment together.
To Demaryius Thomas family and friends sorry for your lost 😢 😞. R.I.P.
I honestly don’t have any words, this is just a tru shocker and heart breaker to say the least 😞 this brotha Thomas was great on and off the field 🙏🏽‼️ just almost weeks away from his bday but was taken away so soon
Saw him at the 2020-2021 HoF in Canton Ohio. He was so nice truly amazing player. Gone to Soon. R.I.H
This is sad so many of Millennials have passed in the past 5 years, prayers and condolences to the Thomas family 🙏🏽🙏🏽💯.
Passed away way too early. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Tim Tebow inspires me never to become bitter toward those who have been unfair and even hateful toward you. So difficult to do sometimes, but he has been a shining example.
He was my hero. The Tebow-Thomas overtime pass was my first actual find memory as a Broncos fan. Watching him be the star he was with Tebow and Manning and to bring that smile to all the community events was so special. I just can’t believe he’s gone 😭😭
We love you DT. Be with the Lord now, and suffer no more 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Prayers to his Mother 💯
Truly one of the good men of NFL and a fantastic player to boot
Tim is a class act
As a die hard Broncos fan this stings… DT was one of my fav players and I will never forget his game winning TD against the Steelers. Sad that he is gone way too soon. Prayers for his family 🙏🏼
I remember being so hurt when he got injured in the first couple of years with us & couldn't wait to see him in action...i remember being really hard on him about his drops but he ALWAYS came through in the clutch...DT could have had LEGENDARY numbers w/o the drops & still has HOF numbers...
Edit:What's crazy is took me watching that show with the Decker's that got me really dig this cat!!! HUGE LOSS TO THE WORLD OF PRIDE...FEW TOO MANY HUMBLE MEN LEFT LIKE THIS CLASS ACT!!! GOD BLESS HIS FAMILY & I PRAY THAT HE WAS A GOD-FEARING MAN WHEN HE LEFT THIS WORLD(which I'm about 99.9% SURE HE WAS)🙏☝👑
So sad I never knew Thomas until my man Peyton Manning went to the Broncos..what a exciting guy this was on the field and on camera..I didn't know him personally but as a fan I'm saddened 🇨🇦
This breaks my heart
So sad to hear of DT's passing. What a great person he was. Even better than he was a player. God rest his soul.
Gone way too soon, not a broncos fan but I did find myself watching a bunch of entertaining games with manning at the helm throwing to Thomas a lot. Special talent. Condolences to his family and friends
Last night after I showered I put on my Broncos long sleeve shirt then couple hours later I saw the news about DT and I was crushed…only 33 same age as me
Prayer for the family, friends, teammates, and fans. You brought so much joy for me and my little brother. We already miss you.
Well said Tebow. And all thoughts and prayers go out to his family and every Broncos fan in Denver. May God Rest his soul
Seeing DT gone has been the hardest passing I’ve seen and I’m not even a broncos fan. I’m a packers fan but just seeing how much of a good guy this dude was is just heartbreaking because you can tell he was genuinely a really good human at heart and I don’t even see a single fake thing about him. This is why I never believed in god because my mom has a cancer that isn’t even curable and people always die to things that shouldn’t even happen.
Thank you DT for your play and heart me and my son loved watching you excel at you craft.
Family is saying it is believed that he had a seizure while in the shower... he was so underrated and was one of the best 88 club members
Caused by the jab..60 time increase among athletes. For ex., 180 young and healthy fifa players gone in six months….
Tim Tebow would have never gone on a 2011 run without Demaryius Thomas. He better pay that man’s funeral.
I am a also a Broncos Fan and watching the OT Win was my of my favorite moments in my lifetime
Rest easy DT. He never quit and overcome hardship. A true man of God.
Thanks for helping bring a championship to a team I rooted for since I seen orange and blue.
What a gift it was seeing him play with Peyton, ugggh I want to go back and relive it.
I can’t believe he passed, he was still so young. He was an amazing player but an even better person. May he rest in heavenly peace and may God always bless and be with his family and friends 🕊
Very Well Said Tebow….
Sad he’s one of the underrated receivers of the 2010s Manning in his late years came and helped him become a perennial pro bowler
Those seasons he had back to back were legendary
I wouldn't call him underrated, his career yes but in 2012-2015 he was a top 5 WR
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. Rest in peace DT🕊
Eric Decker wow that’s a throwback name. Dude was a really good receiver that just disappeared
He signed with the jets and we never heard from him again :(
I just came off of celebrating my 44th birthday and SAS was right when he said tomorrow is not guaranteed to any of us my prayers go out to him and his family 🙏
Another sad reminder that we need to treat each other better before it's too late.
We love you DT always 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
Gutted. Just gutted. But if there was anyone I’d ask to summarize DT, it would be Tebow. Wonderful tribute from #15. Denver will never see another professional athlete like him.
beautiful words from tebow
Such a happy dude
LOVE YOU DT !
Rest in Peace, DeMaryius Thomas...
He will forever be Orange & blue for life Broncos Nation for life . Salute to him from Mile High City 💯
Broncos fans blessed with getting to know Thomas. Genuinely a nice person.
This is devasting!! Unreal! May he rest well!
DT lives on forever in Denver
I just teared up
I am a Broncos fan and we my favorite players when he was a the Broncos he died to soon
I was huge Broncos fan he was favorite players on the team
Praying for his family and him.
first and foremost, rest in peace Demaryius Thomas. May his friends, family, and love ones all find hope, prayer, support, and togetherness on these dark days ahead.
Secondly, I hope that the next time a fan gets upset at a flag being thrown for illegally hitting a defenseless receiver they will look back at this moment, and use these very unfortunate circumstances to understand the reason why referees have to protect the players.
Rest in Paradise Demaryius Thomas
It’s bitter sweet year to be a Broncos fan this year. The team has so much promise now this season we traded von then dt passed 🥺😞
Rest In Peace, our beloved, Demaryius Thomas.
Wow his birthday on Christmas like me. Steeler Fan here this guy was a nuisance on the field but I respected his game and Rest in Paradise DT
Rest In Peace DT!!!!
He Was The Broncos.....Rest Heavenly DT
Thank you all for this segment :)
Rest in Power.
Rest in Heaven DT
True Superstar gone too soon, 1 of my fave WR's & Superstars fasho....
He was a fun player to watch. Sad news.
I work for ups as a seasonal helper and we ran over a pit bull today. I can’t unsee it 😔😔😞😞
