Peyton Manning’s practice for the ‘Kick of Destiny’ is hilarious

Peyton Manning and his younger brother, Eli Manning, are set to face off in FanDuel’s “Kick of Destiny 3” event at the Super Bowl on Sunday.

The brothers will compete to see who can be the first to convert a field goal during pregame ahead of the Super Bowl. FanDuel has already released two commercials promoting the showdown, and they have now shared behind-the-scenes footage of Peyton practicing for the event.

In the six-minute mockumentary, Peyton clearly exaggerates his preparation, stating on Day 4 that he went 100-of-100 on practice kicks. Notably, none of the kicks are actually shown. Check it out:

On Day 6 of the video, Manning says he missed a 72-yard attempt, otherwise going 199-of-200 on field goal attempts that day.

FanDuel also released a mock press conference featuring Peyton and Eli, with the latter saying he only attended the presser so he wouldn’t be fined.

Here are several more segments from that press conference:

The brothers will both attempt to convert field goals at 3 p.m. ET ahead of the Super Bowl LIX on Sunday. FanDuel will also have two Manning commercials air during the game.

The Super Bowl between the Chiefs and Eagles will be held at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans at 6:30 p.m. ET on Feb. 9. The game will be televised on Fox and available to stream on FuboTV (try it free).
