ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — For the first time since 2010, the Broncos will open their season on the road.
Denver, playing in the final game of Week 1, will face the Oakland Raiders on the road on “Monday Night Football.”
That Sept. 9 contest and the rest of the Broncos’ 2019 schedule was revealed Wednesday evening by the NFL.
The Broncos follow their opener with a Week 2 home game against Head Coach Vic Fangio’s former team, the Chicago Bears. Denver has started each of the last six seasons with a 2-0 record, which is the longest active streak in the NFL.
The Broncos then travel to Green Bay in Week 3, return home to play Jacksonville in Week 4, visit the Chargers in Week 5 and host the Titans in Week 6.
Denver’s only other scheduled prime-time game will occur in Week 7 when the Broncos host the Chiefs on “Thursday Night Football.” All “Sunday Night Football” games from Weeks 5-16, though, are subject to change. The NFL will set the Week 17 Sunday night game ahead of the season’s final week.
The Broncos have not beaten the Chiefs since a Week 2 “Thursday Night Football” matchup in 2015.
