Demaryius Thomas To Start In Debut
6 years agoHouston Texans wide receiver Demaryius Thomas is expected to start alongside DeAndre Hopkins in his team debut in Week 9 against his former team, the Denver Broncos. Hopkins has helped Thomas get up to speed quickly on the team's playbook. It doesn't sound like Thomas will have his snaps limited at all as he attempts to replace Will Fuller (knee). Thomas will be a WR3 and could have a big game with Denver's secondary beat up. Running back Tyler Ervin could see a lot of time in the slot with rookie Keke Coutee (hamstring) still out, but Ervin isn't a realistic option for starting lineups.
