Colorful Season At Home

This season is shaping up as the most diversified in terms of uniforms and colors in Denver Broncos history.

Teams are allowed to wear their alternate (third) jersey a max of three times, one in preseason and two in the regular season. That’s good news for Bronco fans who can’t get enough orange, as the locals will wear it three times out of the 10 regular and preseason home games.

But then, in addition to the blue that marks the standard Bronco uniform, Denver will dip back, way back, in time and wear the Broncos’ original 1960 uniform when the Broncos host the Boston (for that game, Boston) Patriots in one of the American Football League matchups this year. That means gold (really, a mustard yellow) home jersey, seal brown pants and helmet, no logo, just a uniform number of the helmet, and of course the legendary, infamous vertically striped gold and brown socks.

It was a historical night for the Broncos at INVESCO Field at Mile High. With 76 players suiting up in full pads, a record practice crowd of 13,402 fans filled the stadium seats to watch the two-hour session. Here are some quick hits from the under-the-lights outing in Denver.

ROLL CALL: Not practicing were Brandon Marshall, Brian Dawkins, and Rulon Davis. After practicing in the morning with an orange jersey for players recovering from injury, Nic Clemons was back out on the field in the same threads.

The footballs will be flying Thursday night at INVESCO Field at Mile High. The Big House will be open for business again.

The Broncos will hold their evening practice at INVESCO Field at Mile High. I’m not sure how long it has been since they have held a training camp practice there, but it seems like it has been a while.

“We are all looking forward to going down there,” Broncos’ head coach Josh McDaniels said. “Usually during this time of training camp, you get rejuvenated by going down there, putting the lights on and being in the stadium. It is a fun thing for all of us. Everybody is looking forward to it, and I hope there is a good turnout. I hope we put on a good show.”
