The Denver Broncos unveiled their first major uniform update in 27 years on Monday, and not everybody was thrilled about it.
Two helmets. Three jerseys. Three sets of pants. The Denver Broncos might not be very good in 2024, but they plan on doing so while looking very different.
The team teased the uniforms on social media last month, but just days before the draft, they finally decided to show off their new threads.
The new uniform highlights 5280 and is known as “The Mile High Collection.”
Each of the three colors—navy, orange, and white—is included in every uniform. The player’s number is displayed on the front of the uniform along with the iconic “Broncos” and the words “Broncos Country” and 5280 on the back collar.
Meanwhile, the new Denver Broncos helmets have 5280 on the front and are available in white and blue.

Instead of the recognizable “D” emblem that many fans had hoped for, the Broncos horse logo is included on the uniforms.
An orange Ford Bronco and well-known locations from across the state, including Larimer Square, Red Rocks Amphitheater, and the “cash register building” at the Wells Fargo Center, were featured in the video announcement.
“Our new uniforms -the Mile High Collection- boldly integrate elements of our past, present and future while paying tribute to Colorado and the Rocky Mountain Region we proudly call home,” Broncos president Damani Leech said, via DenverBroncos.com.

Denver Broncos Hoping To Rebound From Up & Down 2023 Season
The Broncos released former quarterback Russell Wilson and traded wide receiver Jerry Jeudy in early March.
The team is coming off a 2023 season that started badly as the team finished 8-9 under new head coach Sean Payton, a three-game increase from the previous year.
The team still needs a quarterback but they have hope they can approve in 2024.
