Why the Broncos are wearing white jerseys at home vs. Steelers

The Broncos will wear white jerseys at home this week to force the Steelers to wear black in the September heat.

The Denver Broncos will wear white jerseys and blue pants when they host the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2, the team announced Sunday.

The Broncos are wearing white at home to force the Steelers to wear black jerseys in the September heat. Ironically, the team’s new primary orange home jersey will make its debut on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next week as the Bucs employ a similar tactic against Denver.

The Broncos previously announced their jersey color for all 17 games this season, but players pick the color of their pants each week. Denver wore white jerseys and pants against the Seattle Seahawks last week. The blue pants will make their regular season debut today.

The Broncos’ home games this season will feature white (once), blue (once), throwback (twice) and orange (four times) jerseys. On the road, Denver will wear white jerseys with the exception of an orange jersey game against Tampa Bay in Week 3.

The team’s throwback look will make its debut when the Broncos host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5.

Michigan to wear lucky all blue uniforms vs. Texas Longhorns

Michigan Wolverines have a new tradition of wearing all blue uniforms for big games. ‘Big game blues’ will be worn for Texas Longhorns.

The Texas Longhorns and Michigan Wolverines have two of the most iconic uniforms in college football. Both have iconic helmets and colors. Texas never changes is combination. Michigan sometimes will roll out an all-blue or, more rarely, an all-maize combo.

Big Blue has decided to go all blue against Texas. For the 19th time in school history, Michigan will wear blue monochromatic uniforms. Over the past few years, the Wolverines have worn the ‘Big Game Blue’ uniforms for that the program considers its biggest games.

The Wolverines are 17-1 overall and 10-0 at home with blue pants. Michigan’s only loss in the blues was to Georgia in the Capital One Orange Bowl, which was a college football playoff semifinal.

The school used a video of the EA College Football 25 uniform editor to make the announcement.

Texas’ road uniforms are all white, so it will be a nice contrast. All blue vs. all white.

Seahawks to wear royal blue throwbacks in Week 1 vs. Denver Bronos

Seahawks to wear royal blue throwbacks in Week 1 vs. Denver Bronos

On September 8th, the 12th Man is going to party like it’s 1999, because the Seattle Seahawks will be wearing their beloved royal blue throwback uniforms. In honor of kicking off the 2024 season, Seattle will be donning arguably the best uniform in the entire National Football League.

It is only fitting the season opener is against the Denver Broncos, who were Seattle’s former AFC West rival from 1977-2001. The Broncos updated their uniforms this offseason, which look terrible, so Week 1 is going to be a battle of new school verus old school… at least when it comes to uniforms, that is.

This is now twice in the last three years the Seahawks will open the NFL season against the Broncos while wearing an alternate uniform. In 2022, Seattle hosted Denver on Monday Night Football while wearing their all Action Green threads. Seattle successfully defended home turf with a 17-16 upset victory.

Now, they will begin the season once more with an alternate look. The Seahawks were already slated to wear their throwbacks in Week 6 against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday Night Football. That impending showdown will be a double throwback game, as the 49ers are already opting to wear their hideous all-white throwback uniforms.

The Seahawks were 1-1 last year in the two games they wore their throwbacks. Seattle defeated the Cleveland Browns in their Week 8 matchup, winning 24-20. Unfortunately, they lost their second game, falling 41-35 to the Cowboys in Dallas. The Seahawks will look to move this record back into the win column in Week 1 against the Broncos.

Denver announced its regular-season jersey schedule earlier this month. The team’s pants color will be picked by team captains each week.

During the regular season, the Broncos’ home games will feature white (once), blue (once), throwback (twice) and orange (four times) jerseys. Denver will wear white on the road with the exception of an orange jersey game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3.

After facing the Cardinals on Sunday, the Broncos will have until Aug. 27 to finalize an initial 53-man roster. After that, Denver will build a 17-player practice squad.

Following preseason, the Broncos will go on the road to face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Damani Leech on Broncos’ new uniforms: ‘I think they’re beautiful’

“It’s not quite as much as your baby being born, but it was little bit like that,” Damani Leech joked about the Broncos’ new uniform.

The Denver Broncos unveiled a new uniform set this spring to mixed reviews. The team’s throwback uniform is universally loved, but there was a lot of negative feedback online for Denver’s new primary uniform.

Four months later, fans seem to have warmed up to the new look. Seeing the uniform worn by players in a game probably helped.

“It was really fun to see them on the field this weekend,” Broncos team president Damani Leech said Tuesday. “It’s not quite as much as your baby being born, but it was little bit like that seeing them out there running around. It was really fun. I rewatched the broadcast after the game to see it. I think they’re beautiful.

“It was really fun to see. It’ll be fun to see how it gets switched up. The players are driving which pants they wear each game. So we’ll take their cues on that, but I think it’ll be great to see. For the Raiders game we’ll wear the throwbacks and that’ll be really special, too.”

Denver has announced which jerseys will be worn for each game this season, but as Leech noted, the players will pick the colors of the pants for each game. This week, the Broncos will wear white jerseys with orange pants at home against the Green Bay Packers (stream the game free). After that, Denver will close out preseason against the Arizona Cardinals on Aug. 25.

Broncos announce uniform combo for preseason game vs. Packers

After wearing white jerseys and white pants last week, the Broncos will wear white jerseys with orange pants this week.

The Denver Broncos broke out their new uniforms for the first time in their preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts last week.

The Broncos wore their primary road white jersey with white pants and their primary blue helmet, a look that received mostly positive reviews from fans. This week, Denver will wear the white jersey at home with orange pants, the team announced on Thursday.

The Broncos have already announced their jersey schedule for every game this season, but the pants are picked by players the week of each game. Denver opted to wear white jerseys for both preseason home games, presumably because of the August heat.

The Broncos will also wear a white jersey at home when they host the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2, an early September game.

After wearing white pants in their first preseason game and orange pants this week, it wouldn’t be surprising if Denver breaks out blue pants for a preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals next week.

The Broncos’ next two preseason games will be nationally televised.

Terrell Davis, 51, looks like he could still play for the Broncos today

Terrell Davis, 51, looks like he could go out and play for the Broncos in a game today!

Terrell Davis was forced to walk away from professional football 22 years ago due to knee injuries, but the 51-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer looks like he could still suit up and play today.

In a video produced by the Denver Broncos, Davis and NFL Network’s James Palmer check out the team’s new uniforms and break out their own combinations. Palmer goes with an orange jersey and orange pants with the team’s standard blue helmet on a mannequin.

For his uniform combination, Davis had “a better idea” than using the mannequin and he left the room to later return in full uniform — with cleats and all. Davis picked the team’s alternate blue jersey with an alternate white helmet. You can see him rocking the look beginning at the 2:54 mark in this video:

A two-time Super Bowl champion, NFL MVP and Super Bowl MVP, Davis is still in great shape and he makes the uniform look great.

Davis putting on the uniform was the highlight of the “Salute to Broncos Country” video, but the most interesting nugget involved the team’s uniform schedule. Denver has already announced which jerseys it will wear each week. The video revealed that players will pick pants and sock colors each week. The team’s captains will make the decision on a game-by-game basis.

The Broncos will debut their new white jerseys with white pants when they face the Indianapolis Colts in their preseason opener today.
