The Denver Outlaws are a professional men's field lacrosse team based in Denver, Colorado. They compete in the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) as a member of the league's Western Conference. Founded as the Chrome Lacrosse Club, they began play as one of the league's six inaugural teams in the 2019 season alongside Archers, Atlas, Chaos, Redwoods, and Whipsnakes. Following the assignment of home markets for the 2024 season, they were rebranded with the identity of the former Denver Outlaws Major League Lacrosse team.[1]
