Source: #Broncos quietly shopped Demaryius Thomas at trade deadline, and are potentially looking to move on from him this off season.

Team feels he lost strength when he switched to vegan diet, hasn't been same player.




Just an FYI, Allbright is considered a complete hack by most Broncos fans, but I just thought I would pass it along.

This has to be a joke excuse, right? I think they mean maybe he stopped taking PEDs.

You get all the protein you need from vegetables, beans and grains.

It's a myth that we need meat for protein.

There are famous marathoners and tri-athletes who are vegans.

They're probably just using this as an excuse.

But it's a bit weird to me that some of these guys have been going vegan.

I don't think their performance is actually suffering. Also, it wouldn't shock me if a lot more athletes are vegan or on a different type of diet.

There was an article last week about Kyrie, Garrett Temple and others going vegan in the NBA. Jaylen Brown has been vegan for some time.
