Television executives have dreamed of landing Peyton Manning for their NFL telecasts since he retired after the 2015 season. On Monday, it finally happened – but as usual, it happened under Manning’s terms.
ESPN announced a partnership with Manning’s Omaha Productions for an alternate telecast of 10 "Monday Night Football" games on ESPN2 for the 2021, ’22 and ’23 seasons that will feature Peyton and his younger brother Eli, a two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback for the Giants.
The network said the "MegaCast" fronted by the Manning brothers would complement its traditional coverage on ESPN and/or ABC.
