Through their PeyBack Foundation, Peyton Manning and his wife, Ashley, announced the creation of the Demaryius A. Thomas Scholarship Endowment on Wednesday to honor the former Broncos receiver who passed away last December.
Full and partial scholarships will be awarded and will follow the recipients through the completion of their degrees at Georgia Tech. To initially qualify, recipients must have a 3.2 or higher grade-point average and “demonstrated community-service involvement.”In a statement, Manning said: “Demaryius Thomas was an incredibly talented and unselfish teammate, but more importantly, he was a special person and friend.
“For Peyton to take that step and for his family to take that step to honor D.T. and his family and all those kids they are going to affect for years and years to come, that, to me, is just the ultimate show of respect,” Simmons said.The Broncos completed their three-day voluntary minicamp Wednesday morning with a 90-minute workout.
After practice, quarterback Russell Wilson met with the receivers for at least 20 minutes at midfield.
