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.
