ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Broncos will soon celebrate their first Super Bowl team.

In Week 5 against the Raiders, Denver will celebrate its annual Alumni Weekend with a reunion for the 1977 Broncos. Denver capped the 1977 season with the franchise's first playoff and Super Bowl appearances.

During the Alumni Weekend festivities, the Broncos will also honor the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction of Randy Gradishar and Broncos Ring of Fame enshrinements of Steve Foley and Riley Odoms.

The game is slated for Sunday, Oct. 6 at 2:05 p.m. MT.

Foley and Odoms were announced as Ring of Famers earlier on Thursday.

The Broncos' 1977 team featured 11 Ring of Famers, as well as Denver's newest Hall of Famer in Gradishar. The team posted a 12-2 record before defeating the Steelers and Raiders en route to a Super Bowl XII appearance.
