The Denver Broncos will have their first home game of the 2026 season when the host the Green Bay Packers in the second preseason game. Bo Nix will get a few series to show off his return from that season-ending ankle injury after the postseason win over the Buffalo Bills. It should be a great first half as preseason football usually is. Hopefully the second half has some fireworks as well.

Kickoff is set for 7:00 p.m. Mile High time on Friday, August 21, 2025 at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado. You can also check local Broncos radio network affiliate stations. Join the discussion in the comments section below.

Riley Moss, man.

Nearly picked off Jordan Love on the first snap of the game. Was right there with Christian Watson.

What a play by Pat Surtain II.

Gave up the catch and never gave up on the play.

Ripped the ball out of Watson's hands.

TE: Engram
WR: Sutton, Waddle, Bryant
OL: Bolles, Powers, Throckmorton, Meinerz, McGlinchey

Ruling stands. A heck of an effort from Courtland Sutton. Looked like the ball might have got him in the ribs or knocked the wind out of him, too, but he's still in the game.
