The Denver Broncos' new training facility and headquarters are on track to be ready for training camp this summer.
The Broncos initially broke ground on the $175 million facility in the summer of 2024. Speaking at the NFL's annual league meeting in Arizona last month, team owner Greg Penner was asked for an update on the construction and what benefits the new facility will bring to the club.
“It’s been a terrific process," Penner said. "It’s fun to watch it getting built right before our eyes. Amy Dee, who has been managing that process for us, has done a terrific job, so we are on time and on budget. We will be moving in there in June. Really, the biggest advantage is I’d say two things: No. 1, it is bringing the whole organization together — so folks from different buildings and sites, including the stadium. Then it will be a huge benefit for the players.
"The whole design of the building is oriented around enabling the players to have that one floor where they can do everything. So a larger locker room, training room, connected to the weight room, meetings rooms and cafeteria. The player path of travel is going to be really well set up.”
Denver will have limited capacity for fans again this summer because the old berm has not yet been replaced, but the facility itself will be ready for camp. Fans who download free tickets will be able to watch from temporary bleachers.
“The bulk of it obviously is the actual building that you all look at every day," team president Damani Leech said of the construction. "We’ll move in there in June. The berm itself should get built sometime during this season. That one is less concerning from a timing standpoint. The building itself is what we’re really excited about.
"For our football players, for them to be able to use it, and coaches and staff. I think it will just be great for the organization. It’s a tremendous credit to Greg and Carrie and their investment in the organization and putting the team in a position to be successful on the field.”
The Broncos are expected to announce their training camp schedule in June, with practices likely beginning in late July. Football will be back soon.
