Denver’s NFL team, the Broncos , do not have a specific next opponent locked in yet; as the AFC’s No. 1 seed, they will host the lowest remaining seed in the AFC Divisional Round on the weekend of January 17–18, 2026, after Wild Card games are completed.

Which Denver team?

The name “Denver” could refer to several pro teams (Broncos in the NFL, Nuggets in the NBA, etc.), but current coverage about “who Denver plays next” is centered on the Denver Broncos’ upcoming playoff game as the AFC’s top seed. Because their opponent depends on Wild Card results, no single team can yet be named as “next” on their schedule.

Broncos’ next game details

  • The Broncos finished the regular season 14–3 and secured the AFC’s No. 1 seed, giving them home-field advantage.
  • Their next game is the AFC Divisional Round at home on January 17 or 18, 2026.
  • They will face the lowest remaining seed from the AFC Wild Card round (among teams such as the Chargers, Patriots, Bills, Jaguars, Texans, Steelers, or Ravens).

If you meant a different Denver team (like the Nuggets, Avalanche, or Rockies), say which one and the league, and the answer can be tailored to that.
