We already knew some of the Denver Broncos’ schedule for the 2024 NFL season, including the team’s first two games, but now the whole thing is here!

The highlights start with the Broncos opener in Seattl,e which could feature Bo Nix’s return to the Pacific Northwest—where he played college ball at Oregon, that is if he’s named the team’s starter for Week 1. Another big game comes in Week 2 when Russell Wilson returns to Broncos Country for Denver’s home opener. One more big homecoming of sorts happens on Thursday Night Football Week 7 when Sean Payton and the Broncos visit the Saints—where he coached for a long time and won a Super Bowl.

There’s also the two matchups with the reigning champion Chiefs, in Week 10 on the road and maybe a break since they may have clinched by then, in Week 18 in Denver. Fans will of course be tuned in for the Raiders in Week 5 and Week 12. The toughest games of the season may be the team’s trips to Baltimore and Cincinnati in Weeks 9 and 17.
