Thomas and the other male passenger suffered minor injuries, and are expected to be treated and released, per the release. The female passenger sustained serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.

The cause of the crash is currently under investigation.

Thomas had 677 yards and five touchdowns on 59 receptions last year, splitting the season between the Broncos and the Texans. The 31-year-old was released by the Texans, and is currently a free agent. He ruptured his Achilles tendon in Week 16 of the season after just seven games with Houston.
