In the days following the death of Demaryius Thomas, many in the football world have expressed their condolences.
Patriots safety Devin McCourty, speaking on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” on Friday, said he was shocked to hear the news.
He came into the league the same year as Thomas (2010), played against him many times, and got to know him when Thomas was with the Patriots briefly in 2019. Though he didn’t play in a regular-season game, his presence was still very much felt in New England.
“Just the ultimate veteran,” McCourty said.
