The league announced the Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs will play a Week 1 game on Monday Night Football. It's likely the first of many primetime games for Denver after making the AFC championship game last season.
The Week 1 game will be Sept. 14 at 6:15 p.m. Mountain on ABC and ESPN. What the league didn't announce is which team will host the game.
The Broncos swept the Chiefs in 2025. Both teams will be hoping their star quarterbacks are fully healthy for this game, with both Bo Nix and Patrick Mahomes currently in offseason rehab from injuries.
The complete 2026 schedule will be announced on May 14 at 5:30 p.m. Mountain.
