Two of the NFL’s biggest legends may be teaming up in 2024. While they were arch rivals during their time in the league they could be teammates in 2024. There was a report last week that legend Peyton Manning is trying to hire Bill Belichick this off season to work in media for Peyton’s production studio. Now Peyton has officially addressed these reports.
Peyton Manning Wants To Give The Fans What They Want
Peyton Manning is in fact trying to make this happen. When he was speaking to media insider Andrew Marchand, Manning admitted that he is trying to add Belichick to his production company because he knows fans would eat it up.
“If it comes to fruition, I think fans will be excited to see how incredibly brilliant Bill Belichick is when talking about football and how witty and funny he is,” Manning said.
Belichick was not able to get a job in this coaching carousel and it has been reported that he will try to get a coaching gig next off season. In his one season off, Manning would love to get him in front of the camera. Other TV studious have been a little weary of hiring Bill as they know he will go back to coaching but Peyton thinks he can make it work.
Peyton Manning Wants More Than Just Belichick
Manning has also been reported to be going after legend Nick Saban in addition to Bill. He would want to pair the two together to talk about football similar to the Manning cast that features the Manning brothers on Monday Night Football. To have Bill and Nick, who are very long time friends, speak candidly about football would be something very special for fans.
While Manning did not comment on that part, and just revealed that he is pursuing Belichick, the plan seems to be to pair the two legendary coaches for some type of show. Peyton is really a man of the people, as he knows fans would eat this up and it would be incredible to see these two men put their knowledge on display.
