Broncos Defense Achieves Rare Feat with Two Safeties Against Seahawks
Denver's defense makes history in season opener, marking the first double-safety game since 2017.
- The Broncos scored two safeties in the second quarter, becoming the second team since 1960 to do so in a season opener.
- The first safety came from a holding penalty in the end zone by Seattle's Anthony Bradford.
- The second safety occurred when Zach Charbonnet was tackled in the end zone after a punt placed Seattle at their 1-yard line.
- This is the first time the Broncos have recorded two safeties in a game since 1982, also against Seattle.
- The last NFL team to achieve two safeties in a game was the Miami Dolphins in 2017.
