Overview

The Denver Broncos finish this year ranked 16th overall. It is important to mention that in November, the team announced plans to build a brand new, state-of-the-art practice facility, which is scheduled to be completed before the 2026 season. The survey responses reflect a belief that the Broncos ownership group is willing to invest in the facilities since they purchased the team, as evidenced by choosing to fully replace the field for the final game of the 2022 season.

An improvement that players noted from last year was the hiring of a new dietician. Nearly every player now feels like they are receiving an individualized plan (97%).

A new facility will correct most of the issues the players expressed, like the size of the locker room; but there are other areas that require addressing, which are not related to the facilities. For example, players feel like they lack an individualized workout plan from their strength coach and reported that there were multiple cars stolen from the parking lot of the mandated team hotel during training camp.
