Denver Broncos To Wear All Blue on Sunday vs. Giants
By Tylor Walden
For the first time since 2015, the Denver Broncos will wear all blue for their Sunday Night Football matchup against the New York Giants.
The Denver Broncos have been known for their orange jerseys and white pants since they were revived in the 2012 season. There are a few times where the team will wear the blue ones.
For the Sunday Night Football matchup against the New York Giants, the Denver Broncos will trade in orange for blue. The team announced on Monday that they will wear blue jerseys and blue pants for the game.
Denver has not worn all blue since the 2015 season. They did wear blue jerseys twice last season when they welcomed the Houston Texans and New England Patriots.
The blue jerseys remind me of the late 1990 glory years. Seeing players like John Elway, Terrell Davis, Shannon Sharpe, and Steve Atwater wearing those glorious jerseys was a sight to behold. However, the blue was more utilized with the white pants.

In fact, the first time I saw those blue jerseys was when the Denver Broncos won Super Bowl 32 against the Green Bay Packers. The team would stick with the blue jersey as the home for a while. In 2012, Peyton Manning’s first year, the orange returned.
Personally, I like seeing the Denver Broncos wear the blue jerseys. It brings back a nostalgic feeling from when I was a young Denver Broncos fan. And I find it even better that they are wearing them against the Giants, who have the nickname “Big Blue.”

I feel as if it becomes yearly tradition to wear blue at least once a year. Plus, getting to see some of the new faces of the franchise in blue could be fun.
The only thing to await now is for Sunday Night. I cannot wait to see the Denver Broncos play again.
