Denver Broncos Prioritize Safety with Third Consecutive Turf Replacement | NFL News – Times of India
It is for the third straight year that the Denver Broncos will be playing on new grass for the first time at Empower Field at Mile High. The move is part of the board’s ceaseless efforts to ensure that the pitch does not become a danger to the players. With the team having many highly impacting games and action, a good playing field, therefore, helps in reducing injuries and enhancing the general game experience.
New Turf for Safety
The Denver Broncos have been doing their best over the course of the NFL season by keeping players safe after installing new turf during the season. The team has stated that the aim of changing the turf is to minimize injuries that sometimes occur as a result of old or uneven playing fields. With new grass installed annually, the Broncos want to make sure that the field they play on is excellent each week of the season. For the organization, the top priority was to have good turf replacement as regards to the player safety.
New Grass Arrives at Platteville
Denver will begin receiving new grass coming from a turf farm in Platteville, Colorado. This amount of 14 truckloads of Kentucky bluegrass was directly delivered to the stadium for the replacement of the old turf. Kentucky bluegrass is one of the most resilient and resistant varieties able to withstand football games, and it was the ultimate choice for the Broncos’ home ground. The process of taking grass all the way from the farm ensures that the selected grass is suitable for the conditions and environments at Denver’s altitudes and changing weather.
36-Hour Installation Process
It was no small job laying the new grass. It took a dedicated crew 36 hours to lay down the new grass.

Atlanta Falcons at Denver Broncos: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 11 game
NFL Overreactions Week 10
Sports Seriously’s Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the wildest games in NFL Week 10.
Sports Seriously
In the final minute of their respective games, the Atlanta Falcons (6-4) and Denver Broncos (5-5) thought a victory was within their reach. Instead, they left their road games with a devastating loss but will try to regroup in their Week 11 matchup.
Missed field goals were a big issue for the Falcons against the New Orleans Saints, but Atlanta didn’t capitalize on opportunities in a game it was expected to easily win. Luckily, the Falcons have a healthy lead in the NFC South, but it would be wise not to give other teams hope of catching up and making it a tight divisional race.
Just when it looked like Denver would finally slay the mighty dragon in the Kansas City Chiefs, a blocked field goal stunned the Broncos and sent them home with another loss. They’ve exceeded expectations so far this season, but that can change if Denver continues to slide.

Lorenzo Reyes: Falcons 21, Broncos 18
Atlanta is so inconsistent. But given that the Falcons just lost to the Saints, I could see them elevating their play, even though Denver has an excellent defense. The key for the Falcons will be to generate any type of pass rush.
Tyler Dragon: Falcons 21, Broncos 19
The Broncos nearly had a signature win versus Kansas City last week. Denver played well enough to win. Will their performance carry over to Week 11 versus the Falcons? The Falcons are coming off a frustrating loss. I think Atlanta gets back on track this week with strong games from Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Darnell Mooney.
Richard Morin: Broncos 27, Falcons 23
Don’t go against Bo!
Jordan Mendoza: Falcons 22, Broncos 20
On paper, Atlanta is a much better team. But Denver is scrappy and can play against almost anyone. In the altitude, Younghoe Koo redeems himself with some major kicks to power the Falcons through while the Broncos suffer another close defeat.
