In a video released on Tuesday, Peyton and Eli Manning appeared to be scouting for a new co-host to join them on ManningCast. The video featured the Manning brothers auditioning various celebrities like Jared Goff, Kirk Cousins, Mike Tyson, and even Pat McAffee. They talked about looking for the ‘third Manning brother’ who completes the legendary trio. Tom Brady and Reese Witherspoon both had cameos in the rib-tickling commercial released by Omaha Productions. Well, Reese’s cameo was more of a virtual one. Talking to Witherspoon on a video call, Peyton said “We’re honored that you’d even considered auditioning for ManningCast,” to which came Witherspoon’s sassy comeback “Manning-what? Oh no, I was calling to bundle my home and auto… Aren’t you the insurance guy”
It looks like the Manning duo held no barriers and took it upon themselves to score the comedy touchdown. The elder Manning even addressed his rivalry with Tom Brady by hilariously keeping him in the waiting room and shutting the lights on him. Tom Brady then teased about coming back to the gridiron.
From Mike Tyson saying that the only reason he auditioned was that the brothers had very punchable faces and Cousins’ war-cry ‘You like that’ to comments on their clothing, the commercial had viewers in stitches.
