Broncos will wear throwback uniforms vs. Raiders this week

The Denver Broncos are breaking out a fan favorite for their showdown with the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5.

The Broncos will wear their new 1977-inspired throwback uniform against their division rivals, a fitting choice for an iconic AFC West matchup.

Denver will also honor linebacker Randy Gradishar for his Pro Football Hall of Fame nod, and the team will officially induct safety Steve Foley and tight end Riley Odoms into their Ring of Fame on Sunday.

Additionally, Denver will invite all members of the 1977 team that reached Super Bowl XII to attend the game as part of Alumni Weekend.

The Broncos and Raiders are founding members of the AFL who have competed against each other in the AFC West since 1960.

Sunday will mark the first of two appearances for the team’s throwback look this season. Denver will also wear the uniform in its season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18.
