It's so close you can practically smell it... football. Here we go Broncos Country... the 2025 season starts Friday!

Training camp officially opens Friday July 25 at Broncos Headquarters down at Dove Valley, and this year there's a whole ton of reasons to be excited.

The playoff berth last year, Bo Nix and what appears to be a franchise quarterback - finally. That defense. The return of most of the core players and coaching staff from a year ago. All these things are creating a lot of excitement across the State of Colorado as fans are clamoring to have a look at the 2025 squad getting set to take the field this year.

Training camp is usually the first chance for fans to do so, with thousands turning up at Dove Valley to watch the team workout and practice.

This year, however, there is construction taking place at the Broncos training facility, and that means capacity will be quite limited from what it normally is.

Instead of the 3,000+ fans jam packed on the old grass berm you may have sat on, that's now a construction zone and nobody can sit there. The Walton-Penner Ownership group, fortunately, however knows fans want to come out and will host 13 open practices for fans, up to about 800 a pop on newly constructed bleachers.

Fans are encouraged to park over at the Dove Valley Regional Park, and fans can walk over to the new training camp entrance from there.

Also something else cool I think... autographs will be limited to kids only this year! Kids 5-15 can hang out in the "Kids Zone," where they can wrangle their favorite players for autographs this year.
