The Denver Broncos are rumored to open up on the road in Week 1 against the New York Giants, but we’ve also got an rumor coming in from an old friend about a Week 8 contest against the Washington Football Team. Nicki Jhabvala has reported that Denver will host WFT in Week 8.
One game for ya, per sources:

Week 8: WAS @ DEN, Oct. 31 at 2:25 p.m. MST on FOX
The Broncos and WFT have battled it out over the years with the all-time series tied up at 7 a piece, with the tie breaker going to WFT when their Redskins team in 1987-88 led by Doug Williams absolutely demolished the John Elway led Broncos 42-10 where they scored a Super Bowl record 35 points in the second quarter of that game.
If this rumor holds up, the Broncos will take on WFT on Sunday, October 31, 2021 at 2:25 PM Mile High time at Empower Field at Mile High.
