Peyton and Eli Manning’s ManningCast broadcasts were a hit last season, and the show has already produced a viral moment before the 2023 NFL season even kicks off.
Omaha Productions, Peyton Manning’s production company that is behind ManningCast, shared a hilarious video Tuesday of a spoofed audition for a third cast member of the show, featuring multiple celebrity cameos and plenty of NFL stars. Tom Brady, Kirk Cousins, Pat McAfee, DJ Khaled, Mike Tyson and Livvy Dunne are among the stars of the video, with each cast as a potential teammate to the Mannings on the show. From Cousins screaming “You like that?!” at the Manning brothers, to Dunne asking Peyton Manning if he has heard of TikTok, the video is sheer perfection:

To cap it off, Brady is seen stuck in the waiting room, snubbed even for an audition for the show. When the lights go out in the waiting room, Brady jokes, “I guess I’ll just come back and play football then,” a hilarious spoof given Brady’s past retirement indecision and his uncertain future in the broadcast world with Fox.
Fans absolutely loved the video:

The ManningCast will return on Monday Night Football starting in Week 1 for a huge showdown between the Bills and Jets. In total, the show will air nine times during the regular season, as well as during the Wild Card round of the postseason.
