The Denver Broncos are set to return to England this fall to play in London for the third time in franchise history. Denver will be the “road” team against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8 on Oct. 30.
The NFL has increased the number of games played in the United Kingdom in recent years and different teams have handled travel in different ways. Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett is no stranger to international travel for NFL games — he coached with the Jags from 2015-2018 and experienced their frequent trips to London.
Hackett was just a coordinator then, though. He’s the head coach now and the team’s travel schedule falls in large part on him. The first-year head coach plans to collaborate with coaches and players to form a game plan.
