Sunday, at halftime, the Chiefs will honor late linebacker Derrick Thomas in Arrowhead. He had 18 sacks in 22 career games vs. Denver. Growing up Elvis Dumervil looked up to Thomas as a role model. Doom, 'hopes he can pay tribute to Thomas on Sunday by putting together a memorable performance at Arrowhead Stadium, such as Thomas usually did whenever he graced the field for the Chiefs.'“I thought he was kind of so-called undersized, playing the position that he was playing as a rusher at the time,” Dumervil said. “He was very explosive. He made big plays. He changed the game, getting off, the forced fumbles, the what — seven sacks in one game? He was a trend setter and he will always be remembered.”
It will be a great game not to be missed.
