LSU gymnastics star Olivia Dunne featured in a promotional video for the upcoming season of ESPN’s “ManningCast” during which she boldly roasted Peyton and Eli Manning during a mock audition for the show.
While vying for a seat on the “ManningCast” commentary for Monday Night Football, Dunne didn’t hold anything back while mocking the retired NFL stars about their age and lack of athleticism in the promotional video from Omaha Productions.
Dunne started off by asking if the Manning brothers had heard of TikTok, the social media platform on which she boasts 7.8 million followers. She then told the Mannings that she could provide knowledge on “things you don’t know about, like being athletic.”
Dunne continued on by joking about the show’s target audience, before concluding the audition by asking if the Mannings knew Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow.

Dunne pulled no punches when explaining to the brothers how she could improve their show, suggesting she’d be able to attract a younger audience to the program.
The “ManningCast” debuted in September of 2021 and will be returning for its third season during the ’23 NFL campaign.
In a teaser video shared by Omaha Productions on Tuesday, clips of various NFL players, athletes, and celebrities could seen doing mock auditions for the show, ranging from Reese Witherspoon to Mike Tyson and, of course, Dunne.
