The Denver Broncos will officially induct late, great wide receiver Demaryius Thomas into their Ring of Fame and recognize their 2015 Super Bowl 50 team when they host the New York Giants in Week 7 this fall.
No players from that Super Bowl-winning roster remain on Denver’s current squad, but one of the team’s players from 2016 now plays for the Giants. New York long snapper Casey Kreiter, who spent four years with the Broncos, was teammates with Thomas in Denver from 2016-2018.

After the Broncos announced that Thomas will be honored during the Giants game, his ex-teammate reacted to the news on Twitter/X.
“No one better to earn this honor,” Kreiter tweeted. “While I’ll be wearing the oppositions colors for this game I can’t help but smile to know I’ll be in the stadium for this special day! Miss you DT!!!”
Kreiter has been the Giants’ long snapper since 2020. Thomas, a five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro, was a key member of the 2015 squad that won Super Bowl 50.
