The ManningCast Returns Tonight for Week 1 of the NFL Season
The ManningCast, the popular alternate broadcast of Monday Night Football hosted by Peyton and Eli Manning, will return tonight for the Week 1 matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets. This will be the first ManningCast of the season, as the brothers kick off their third year of the simulcast.
The broadcast will begin at 8:13 p.m. ET on ESPN2. In addition to the Mannings, the show will feature two special guests: former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and tennis legend John McEnroe.
The ManningCast has become a cult favorite among NFL fans thanks to its relaxed and informal atmosphere. The brothers offer their own unique insights into the game, and they often have fun with their guests and the viewers.
The ManningCast is a must-watch for any NFL fan. Tune in tonight to see what the Mannings have to say about the Week 1 matchup between the Bills and the Jets.

Only Two Guests on the 2023 ‘Manningcast’ Opener
The ManningCast, the popular alternate broadcast of Monday Night Football hosted by Peyton and Eli Manning, will only have two guests on its 2023 opener. This is a smart move, as some of the past broadcasts have been bloated with too many guests.
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and tennis legend John McEnroe will be the two guests on the show. Fitzpatrick is a natural fit for the ManningCast, as he has shown off his personality and broadcasting skills since retiring from the NFL two years ago. He is a pre- and postgame analyst for Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime Video, and you have probably seen his face in commercials dozens of times.
McEnroe's inclusion is also fitting, as it comes just one day after the US Open final, where Novak Djokovic defeated Daniil Medvedev to win his 24th career Grand Slam title. The tennis legend is known for his fiery personality, so this should be an interesting conversation.
In the weeks leading up to the 2023 NFL season, the Manning brothers released a video teasing a third host. Whether this was a marketing ploy or if there will actually be a third host remains to be seen, but I am eager to find out tonight.
