Bo Nix will join ‘Manningcast’ for Monday’s Chargers-Ravens game

Peyton Manning is phoning a friend to join him and his brother Eli Manning for Monday’s Manningcast during the Chargers-Ravens game. That friend just so happens to be Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix. This is, according to a report by Troy Renck of the Denver Post.

The third-year gunslinger will join the brothers on ESPN for the broadcast of a matchup of two other brothers in the Harbowl. The alternative broadcast features the former NFL quarterbacks talking about the game and the two have welcomed John Elway and Sean Payton already this year — among other famed football and non-football folks.

Manning and Nix have a relationship, as the current Broncos quarterback has detailed that former Broncos quarterback texts him sometimes after games.

“Usually for him, it’s either keep your head up, keep going back to work, or great game, y’all fought hard, whatever,” Nix said recently. “It’s usually those kind of congratulations texts, or the keep-your-head-up type of text.”

This was all revealed initially on the “ManningCast” a while back when Eli said Peyton texts both Nix and Payton after Broncos games.

“He understands as well as I do that there’s so many things that goes into it that he doesn’t understand that he wouldn’t be able to discuss,” Nix said about the texts. “I’ve referred to him on, what do you do in this situation? What do you do in that situation? What helped you in a situation like this? And that’s where somebody like Peyton comes in really helpful. And for a guy like that to be available to help is really cool.”

Maybe we’ll hear something interesting from Nix in talking to the Mannings during the Broncos bye week as he and his teammates spend the weekend watching football from the couch like the rest of us,.
