The Denver Broncos‘ home game against the Atlanta Falcons on Nov. 17 could be flexed to prime time.
Mario Vetanze, a certified posture exercise professional and massage therapist who lists Broncos players among his clients, has been leaking the team’s uniform combinations ahead of Denver’s games this season.
This week, Vetanze tweeted that he’s hearing “rumblings” that the Broncos will wear orange jerseys with orange pants against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11 because the game could be flexed to Sunday Night Football.
The Denver-Atlanta game is currently scheduled to air on Fox at 2:05 p.m. MT. A flex to SNF would make it a 6:20 p.m. MT game on NBC.
If the game is flexed to SNF, an announcement would arrive by mid-week because the NFL has to give teams at least 12 days of notice.
I can confirm that the Broncos will be wearing orange pants with their white tops today.
I’m also hearing rumblings that they will be wearing all orange in 2 weeks against Atlanta. This is because the game could be flexed to SNF (depending on how the next 2 games go) https://t.co/zxhMmoPrQn

The current matchup scheduled for SNF that week is the New York Jets (3-6) hosting the Indianapolis Colts (4-4). One could argue that the Broncos-Falcons game is a more intriguing matchup, and it will mark safety Justin Simmons’ return to Denver.
Stay tuned. If the game is flexed, an announcement is not far away.
