The “ManningCast” is back for the 2024 NFL season with a star-studded “Monday Night Football” matchup between the New York Jets and San Francisco 49ers.
This is the second year in a row that the Jets appear on the alternate telecast for the first Monday night game of the season. Aaron Rodgers’ short-lived debut with New York headlined the opener last year. The 49ers are making their fourth appearance on the “ManningCast,” while the Jets are making their second.
Peyton and Eli Manning will be joined by six-time Super Bowl champion head coach Bill Belichick, comedian Adam Sandler — who’s celebrating a birthday — and Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones.
Here are the best “ManningCast” moments from Week 1.
