Jets’ Demaryius Thomas knows he’s older but says he’s ‘still got it’

Demaryius Thomas is coming off the worst year of his career. He’s 31 years old and was just traded from one rival to another for a sixth-round pick.

It begs the question: Does the five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver and Super Bowl champion have anything left?

“I’m a little older,” Thomas admitted, “but I still got it.”

Time will tell. The 6-foot-3 Thomas will have a significant role with the Jets, asked to replace out-for-the-season starter Quincy Enunwa in coach Adam Gase’s offense. Thomas doesn’t expect there to be too much of a transition. He knows Gase’s offense from his time with him in Denver from 2010-14.
