About this listen
The latest on Peyton Manning comes straight from Monday Night Football, where he and Eli hosted another episode of the wildly popular ManningCast on ESPN2 during the Commanders versus Chiefs matchup. Peyton’s disgust for sloppy play was on full display as Deebo Samuel’s costly mistake early in the first quarter—a screen pass not just dropped but bounced off his facemask and into a Chiefs defender’s hands for an interception—led Manning to exclaim on live TV, “You’re kidding me. That cannot happen. He took his eyes off it,” capturing the frustration of quarterbacks everywhere. Eli was equally as animated when a similar blunder led to a Patrick Mahomes pass bouncing off Travis Kelce’s facemask for a Commanders pick. Their play-by-play and bantering with guests like Jared Goff and Billy Bob Thornton kept social media buzzing well into Tuesday, cementing the ManningCast’s status as must-watch alternative sports coverage, averaging over 1.3 million viewers per telecast according to The Desk and keeping ESPN’s streaming ambitions robust.
Peyton’s off-the-field activities continue to diversify. He’s recently been announced as the brand ambassador for Johnston & Murphy, America’s oldest shoe maker, just in time for their 175th anniversary. Peyton’s infatuation with U.S. history ties perfectly into the campaign—his production company, Omaha Productions, will partner up for the festivities. In a conversation with Men’s Health, Peyton shared stories from his commercial shoots, including filming the classic SportsCenter tour with his family, delighting fans with the kind of family-centric anecdote only Manning can provide.
On the philanthropy front, Manning’s role as Honorary Chair for the 2026 Special Olympics Airlift was reaffirmed in mid-October. He’ll again rally hundreds of volunteer pilots to transport Special Olympics athletes to the USA Games in Minnesota, calling attention to inclusion and opportunity, and further cementing his legacy as both sports icon and community leader, according to Textron Aviation’s announcement.
Business-wise, Omaha Productions remains on a hot streak, producing The Mega-Brands That Built America on the History Channel and collaborating with Hulu for Chad Powers—a sports comedy inspired by Eli’s viral Penn State tryout segment. Manning continues to weigh in on NFL affairs, recently backing Daniel Jones and the Colts’ offense on AtoZ Sports while offering his take on current quarterback trends, steadfast that the pocket passer still has a place in today’s NFL.
Looking ahead, Peyton will be a marquee guest at Fanatics Fest NYC 2025, joining Tom Brady and hundreds of other athletes for what’s billed as the comic con for sports fans, expanding sports card trading and memorabilia panels—a big draw for collectors and superfans.
