However, Manning shared in the show, “I remember Rick Riley one time watched NFL football with a lip reader and they asked me after the game to confirm whether I had said or hadn’t said these five different phrases and I was so embarrassed to admit that yes I said that yes oh I don’t yes I probably did say that.” Sharing the entire scenario, Manning further shared his thoughts on the recent NFL quarterbacks. 

In addition to discussing his own embarrassment, Manning took the opportunity to praise Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Manning highlighted Mahomes’ ability to seamlessly transition between his fierce on-field persona and his role as a loving husband and father.
