For the first Monday Night Football game of the 2022 regular NFL season, the Denver Broncos will face the Seattle Seahawks. The highly-anticipated clash will see Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson return to Lumen Field.
Both the Broncos and Seahawks finished with a 7-10 record last season. After trading for Wilson, Denver are expected to be a much improved side in the upcoming campaign. The reverse is expected from Seattle. This game will be something of a litmus test for both sides and it will be interesting to see how they perform.
