The Denver Broncos announced a new uniform set earlier this year that includes orange (home), white (away), blue (alternate) and throwback jerseys. The Broncos can wear white, orange or blue pants with their non-throwback jerseys.
Denver is wearing orange jerseys with blue pants for the first time this season against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
The Broncos previously wore orange jerseys with white pants against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3. Before that, Denver wore white jerseys in Weeks 1, 2 and 4 before wearing a throwback uniform in Week 5.
Here’s a sampling of how NFL fans and pundits reacted to the Broncos wearing orange tops and blue bottoms for the first time in 2024.
This looks like the combos I used to use on Madden 🔥🔥🔥
Broncos ownership has done a great job sparking the branding and excitement after a lot of down years.
✅New jerseys & branding
✅Building a new facility
✅Stadium upgrades
✅Re-establishing alumni relationships https://t.co/LTSKGq4R7l— Hasten Beamer (@HastenBeamer) October 13, 2024

This was the combination I was hoping for. I love these new uniforms, they’re the best ones the @Broncos have ever had! Thank you, @dleech9! https://t.co/8egLcrEkUc

Socks need work, but I’ve been wanting this for years

Orange socks with this combo would hit so much harder!

Orange socks next time pls

I feel like it’s the socks tbh. Shoulda been orange socks, would’ve tied it together better

Last week, jerseys were Throwbacks.
This week, they're Throw Ups.
Not my favorite look. https://t.co/AMLSEufSet

If the broncos lose it's due to the terrible uniform combination they chose today

I'm out on the new uniform set.
Time to go to the throwbacks permanently.

A common sentiment is that it would look better with orange socks.
Denver has already announced its full jersey schedule for all 17 games this season, but the players pick the pants color each week. After hosting the Chargers on Sunday, the Broncos are scheduled to wear white jerseys on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football in Week 7. They’ll announce their pants color closer to the game.
