The Broncos beat the Chiefs to finish the regular season 10-7 on Sunday and clinch the No. 7 seed in the AFC and a date with the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
The Broncos will travel to Buffalo to take on the No. 2-seeded Bills at 11 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 12.
The game will take place at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y.
For the Broncos, this will be their first playoff since beating the Carolina Panthers, 24-10, on Feb. 7, 2016 to win Super Bowl 50. It comes after the team’s second winning season since then, too.
“Our goal wasn’t to just make the playoffs,” quarterback Bo Nix said after Denver’s 38-0 demolition of Kansas City on Sunday.
Buffalo rolled to a 13-4 record and the No. 2 seed in the AFC behind quarterback Josh Allen, who is squarely in the running to win the NFL’s MVP award.
“We look forward to the challenge,” Denver coach Sean Payton said Sunday. “They’ve had a great season. … We’re going to have a great week of preparation.”
