Last week, reports emerged that the Denver Broncos had met with Lone Tree city officials about the possibility of building a new stadium about 15 miles south of the current Empower Field at Mile High location.
Broncos owner/CEO Greg Penner held an end-of-season press conference on Wednesday and, as usual, a potential new stadium was one of the topics. Penner confirmed that Lone Tree is one of the potential sites, but he also emphasized that everything is still in play.
“With the stadium, I’m sure you’ve all have seen some rumors recently,” Penner said. “You know, we’re continuing to do our diligence. It is a complex question and decision of what we decide to do, and we haven’t ruled out anything at this point.
“We’re still looking at options — on the current site, around Denver [and] we visited other places like Lone Tree. We’ve still got more steps to take there.”

The Broncos’ current lease at Empower Field at Mile High runs through the 2030 season, so it might be a few years before the team makes an official announcement. In the meantime, the front office continues to say what they’ve been saying — the current location, downtown Denver or another location are all on the table.
Many fans expect the Broncos to eventually build a new super stadium. Whether that’s in Denver, Lone Tree or somewhere else remains to be seen.
