See it: ManningCast hold hilarious auditions for third host

The ManningCast, featuring hosts Eli Manning and his older brother, Peyton, will return for a third season in 2023. It will kick off on Monday night when Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets host Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills.

With the Season 3 debut just a few days away, the Manning brothers decided to release their full schedule this week and did so with a star-studded “audition” sketch.

The “auditions” featured big names such as Ray Lewis, Pat McAfee, DJ Khaled, Mike Tyson and Reese Witherspoon to name just a few.

Oh yeah, there was also some guy named Tom Brady.

“No, I didn’t get the ManningCast job. I guess I’ll just come back and play football again,” Brady joked in the skit.

In addition to their “audition” skit, the Mannings did reveal some of their upcoming guests for this season in a corresponding announcement:

The 2023 Sports Emmy Award winner for Most Outstanding Analyst and two-time Super Bowl champion Peyton Manning and his younger brother, two-time Super Bowl MVP, Eli Manning, will kick the season off with Aaron Rodgers’ New York Jets debut against the AFC East defending champion, Buffalo Bills on Week 1 of ESPN’s Monday Night Football (Sept. 11, 8 p.m. ET). Inclusive of Week 1, 10 editions of the award-winning Monday Night Football alternate telecast will air throughout the 2023-24 NFL season, including the Monday night Super Wild Card game and appearances from Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow and Jalen Hurts, among others. All telecasts will air on ESPN2, with select shows on ESPN+. All presentations also available on NFL+.

The brothers may not have settled on a third host but Season 3 of the ManningCast promises to be as entertaining as ever here in 2023.
