Twitter reacts to Broncos’ very orange uniform combination

The Denver Broncos wore orange jerseys and orange pants for the first time this season against the Atlanta Falcons. Do you like the look?

The Denver Broncos unveiled a new uniform look on Sunday — orange jerseys and orange pants with a blue helmet and blue socks.

The Broncos’ new uniform set includes a primary orange jersey and a white road jersey, plus an alternate navy jersey and a throwback orange jersey. When the team wears the primary orange or white jersey, they can wear one of three pants colors: white, orange or blue.

For the first time this season, Denver broke out orange pants to go with orange jerseys against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11. Here’s a sampling of how fans and pundits reacted to the new look on Twitter/X.

The team’s jersey color has already been announced for every game in 2024, but the players pick the pants and sock colors each week.

The Broncos’ most popular uniform is their throwback look. Denver will break out the throwbacks one more time this season when the Broncos host the Kansas City Chiefs in their season finale in Week 18.

Broncos announce uniform combo for game vs. Falcons

The Broncos will wear orange jerseys and orange pants against the Falcons today.

The Denver Broncos will wear orange jerseys and orange pants at home against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11, the team announced Sunday.

This marks the fourth time the Broncos have worn their primary orange jersey this fall, and the first time the team has worn orange tops with orange bottoms. They are 2-1 in primary orange this season.

Denver previously announced the team’s jersey color for all 17 games earlier this year, but players pick the color of their pants each week. The Broncos’ home games this fall will feature jersey colors white (once), blue (once), throwback (twice) and orange (four times).

On the road, Denver had one orange jersey game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3. Besides that Bucs contest, the Broncos’ eight other road games will all feature white jerseys.

After making its debut in Week 5 against the Las Vegas Raiders, Denver’s popular 1977-inspired throwback uniform will return when the Broncos host the Kansas City Chiefs in their season finale in Week 18.

Sean Payton emphasizes importance of proper cleats vs. Chiefs

“You have to have the right shoes on,” Broncos coach Sean Payton said ahead of the Chiefs game. “It’s so important.”

GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium will host a college football game on a rainy night in Missouri tonight. One day later, the Kansas City Chiefs will host the Denver Broncos on the same field.

The Broncos have prepared for the possibility of bad field conditions on Sunday, and coach Sean Payton has emphasized to his players the importance of wearing proper cleats against the Chiefs.

“Field turf is easy, it’s the certain shoe,” Payton said after Friday’s practice. “Most of the grass we play on, it’s a certain shoe. This one is different. Our owner would tell you, ‘You have to have the right tires to win,’ Lewis Hamilton. You have to have the right shoes on. It’s so important, and they‘re expecting more rain Saturday. There’s a game there Saturday. [It’ll be] 58 degrees Sunday, clear, three percent chance of rain, 11 mph winds. We’ll have a good day, but that field will have seen better days.”

Payton went on to share a few stories of fields being impacted by poor field conditions (and improper cleats) earlier in his coaching career.

“We’ve done this over the years,” Payton said. “You show tape. I remember we’re playing Green Bay. It’s third-and-1, Cincinnati had a back Corey Dillon, they ran a short-yardage lead play. On a lead play, you take a drop step. His feet went out [and] they had to kick a field goal. Green Bay came back and scored; it made the difference in a game. One of the more overrated fields every year in our league are the Super Bowl fields. Oftentimes, they’re new. We went through it in Miami. Mike Bell, who’s a real good running back — we’re running a fourth-down play, and I look and he’s got the comfortable [shoes] on. There’s a long history in our league [with] the right shoes.

“The old Giants — the Polo Grounds — had some shoes shipped in. I told these guys this story. We played the Vikings in the NFC Championship game [in] 2000. We were [a] heavy underdog, but we were the [No.] 1 seed at home, and it had frozen. It was grass, but it had frozen. I had never seen a field like it. It was crispy. The normal [cleats] — even the screw-ins — they make a baseball [cleat], not the metal, but the same as [a football cleat]. Those kind of cut through the ice. The footing was significant. We were 31-0 at the half and 41-0 at the end of the game. Footing had a lot to do with that. The footing, as you look at — you can look at the film and see what Tampa Bay was wearing. ‘Burt’ (Michael Burton) just played there [in Kansas City]. I think the proper footing is huge.”

Payton is obsessed with the details, something we’ve known about the coach since he first joined the Broncos in 2023. We’ll see if the proper cleats pay off against the Chiefs on Sunday.

Texas Tech football drops uniform collaboration with Patrick Mahomes

#Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes collaborated with Texas Tech on a new uniform that the Red Raiders will debut against Colorado this weekend.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is known for the strong connection he has with his alma mater, Texas Tech. Since his rise to stardom in the NFL, Mahomes has always been one of the most recognizable ambassadors for the Red Raider football team.

The reigning Super Bowl MVP regularly attends both Texas Tech football and basketball games and even signed six of the Red Raiders’ athletes to an NIL deal with Adidas.

On Thursday, Texas Tech Football announced a uniform collaboration with Mahomes in a post to their Twitter account.

The new threads will be worn by the Red Raiders on Saturday, November 9 when Texas Tech will face the University of Colorado with a chance to advance their record to 7-3.

Mahomes’ logo can be seen on the model player’s gloves, and even on his jersey.

It is unclear whether this combination might be used by Texas Tech moving forward, but the Chiefs’ signal-caller is sure to be excited to have played a role in bringing the interesting uniform to life.

Twitter reacts to prime-time debut of Broncos’ new uniforms

The Broncos’ new uniform made its prime-time debut against the Saints on ‘TNF’ in Week 7. Here’s how Twitter/X reacted to the new look.

Earlier this year, the Denver Broncos unveiled a brand-new uniform set that includes orange (home), white (away), blue (alternate) and orange (throwback) jerseys.

The team’s primary orange and white jerseys can be mixed and matched with white, orange or blue pants (orange jerseys with blue pants is not a popular look).

The Broncos will wear their alternate blue jersey with a white helmet on Monday Night Football against the Cleveland Browns in Week 13. Last week, Denver debuted its 1977-inspired throwback uniform, which is by far the team’s most popular uniform.

Tonight, the Broncos’ new primary white jersey makes its prime-time debut against the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football. Here’s a sampling of how fans and pundits have reacted to Denver’s new uniform on Twitter/X.

NFL teams have to wait five years in between primary uniform changes. So the earliest the Broncos could change their look would be 2029.

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.
