Broncos support NFL players' push for natural grass fields

Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton emphasized the benefits of natural grass for player health in the ongoing discussion among NFL teams. Ahead of the FIFA World Cup this summer, seven NFL stadiums converted to natural grass, only to revert to synthetic turf post-tournament due to maintenance costs. The NFL Players Association criticized this decision, arguing that it prioritizes soccer players over NFL players. Broncos players, including Garett Bolles, have actively campaigned on social media for grass fields, showing their preference for the surface. The Broncos currently play on natural grass and are prioritizing it in plans for their new stadium.
