ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos open the regular season against the Tennessee Titans on Sept. 7 at Empower Field at Mile High.
Broncos coach Sean Payton considers the difficulty of cutting this Broncos roster down to 53 players another sign of progress for the organization, which broke an eight-year playoff drought last season with a 10-7 record before losing to the Buffalo Bills in the wild-card round.
Payton said the Broncos will face far tougher decisions this year than in his previous two seasons as Denver's coach because the team's depth and overall talent level are better.
