Demaryius Thomas's Mom Will Be present

Demaryius Thomas's Mom will get to watch him play live for the first time in her life today against the Pittsburgh Steelers. She went to prison in 1999 for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine. She was released in 2015 when President Obama commuted the sentences of 46 non-violent criminals. Unfortunately, she was unable to go to games earlier in the year due to travel restrictions.

I don't want to get into weather or not this influence Demaryius to play better against the Steelers, especially since they have a sorry pass defense. The offense should be able to put plenty of points on the board much like they did in the first game, but hopefully they are able to add something in the second half.

This will be a great moment for both of them. Hopefully she will be able to make the AFC Championship game as well.
