Thomas was driving and there were two other people in the car. All three were transported to the hospital, police said.

Thomas and a male passenger suffered minor injuries and are expected to be treated and released. A female passenger sustained possible serious injuries, but they appear to be non-life-threatening, police stated.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation at this time. There have been no arrests made or citations issued, police said.

Thomas was traded by the Broncos to the Houston Texans in the middle of the 2018 NFL season.
