This offseason, the Denver Broncos decided to roll out new uniforms for the first time since the 1997 season. But unfortunately, the new threads certainly did not get the reaction the team had hoped from fans.
The Broncos officially unveiled the new uniforms on Monday morning, the new uniforms theΒ Mile High Collection.
The team rolled out orange, blue, and white pants to give the team nine different uniform combinations they could wear throughout the season.

“This has been a thoughtful, collaborative journey that’s involved us listening to voices throughout all of Broncos Country to design the Mile High Collection, our modern and inspirational new uniforms for the Denver Broncos,” President Damani Leech said. “We’re grateful for the engagement and creativity of ownership, the players, our business and football leadership, Nike and especially the best fans in the NFL during this process.
“As we honor the championship tradition of the Broncos, we’re also committed to innovation and growth during such a transformative time in franchise history. Our new uniforms β the Mile High Collection β boldly integrate elements of our past, present and future while paying tribute to Colorado and the Rocky Mountain Region we proudly call home.”
Unfortunately for the Broncos, however, fans absolutely blasted them on social media.
Congratulations you look like Illinois. https://t.co/xRU71UlmgM

All they had to do was go with a modern twist on their beloved older uniforms, but instead they are just the Virginia Cavaliers. https://t.co/BN4YRROmCF

These are extremely inoffensive in the most offensive kind of way https://t.co/3BRxFi8GIY

The Broncos used to be an iconic franchise…now we are the next UFL team. https://t.co/66pmWyhpJN

This has the feel of the Jets last uniform design. No way these stick around for 26 years. I didn't like the Broncos 1997-2023 uniforms all that much, but they were better than this. https://t.co/IvXH93plDc

looking like the generic football team that's playing in a commercial for Flonase or something https://t.co/fhn3IiLO2d

Wow these suck. Number designs are never a good idea. These look like a USFL or XFL uniforms. I hate them so much https://t.co/N5rh4WUgHL

We’ll have to see how they look on the field, but it seems like people are not a fan of them.
