Peyton Manning has officially confirmed that Bill Belichick will not return as a regular guest on the ManningCast for the 2025 NFL season. The news comes as the six-time Super Bowl-winning coach transitions into his new role as head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels, marking a significant shift in his career.
Belichick became a fan favorite on the ManningCast during the 2024 season, appearing in all 11 episodes and providing unparalleled insight into the game. His presence offered viewers a unique perspective, blending his deep football knowledge with candid discussions alongside Peyton and Eli Manning. However, his new responsibilities at UNC will understandably limit his availability this year.
In a recent interview, Manning acknowledged how much Belichick’s contributions will be missed. He described the coach’s insight as invaluable but emphasized that the show will continue to thrive with a rotating lineup of guests. This season, the ManningCast will feature a mix of players, coaches, and celebrities, all united by their shared passion for football.
Belichick’s departure marks the end of an era for the ManningCast, but it also opens the door for fresh perspectives. Manning’s ability to connect with guests from diverse backgrounds ensures the broadcast will remain engaging and innovative. The show’s blend of humor, analysis, and storytelling has made it a staple for Monday Night Football fans.

Just recently, Manning said Belichick won’t return to ManningCast for this year. This is detailed more in an article posted by Awful Announcing.
Obviously, [Belichick] seems busy right now coaching college football. So, he won’t be back this year.” Manning began. “He’ll be hard to replace, like, I thought his insight was great. But we’ll try to probably go back to, kind of, rotating guests and, you know, having coaches and players, which I always like their insight, but also the actors and musicians that, you know, the common criteria to be a guest is you gotta love football. And I love, and Eli and I both love, being around people who love football as much as we do in all different walks of life.”
As ManningCast evolves, fans are left reflecting on the memorable moments Belichick brought to the program. While his absence will be felt, the anticipation for new voices adds excitement to the upcoming season.
