Fans of Monday Night Football can breathe easy. After a Week 4 absence for the doubleheader, Eli and Peyton Manning are set to return in Week 5. The popular alternative broadcast is back for the Kansas City Chiefs playing in Jacksonville against the Jaguars.
So yes, there is a ManningCast broadcast for the Kansas City Chiefs vs the Jacksonville Jaguars game. The Manning brothers will be joined by three guests during the night.
ManningCast will run for 12 episodes this season and stream live on ESPN2. Tonight’s ManningCast for the Chiefs-Jaguars game begins at 8:13 p.m. ET on ESPN2.

TMZ broke the news early about one exciting addition to the lineup. Glen Powell will be appearing on the ManningCast broadcast, as the actor has been working closely with Omaha Productions on his Hulu series “Chad Powers.”
Powell stars in a football-related comedy, drawing comparisons to the hit Apple TV series “Ted Lasso.” It announced the arrival of its first two episodes on Tuesday, with a new episode every following Tuesday.

Alongside Glen Powell, Heidi Gardner from Saturday Night Live is also slated to join the guest roster for tonight’s ManningCast. Omaha Productions has confirmed her attendance, though the hosting brothers have not confirmed when each guest will join the show.
I love watching the Manning Cast. Peyton and Eli are QBs to the core! Watching their reactions to this disaster from a fellow QB is probably the same as them watching a car accident on the highway in front of them. “Oh no… oh no… ohhh nooo”. #manningcast pic.twitter.com/mvpKAMRTd4

In addition, Fred Warner, linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers, will also be a guest on ManningCast tonight. The 28-year-old is having another impressive season. In last week’s victory over the LA Rams, Warner recorded 12 tackles, giving him 38 total for the season.
Warner’s defensive abilities go beyond tackles. He has had 5.5 sacks in the early weeks of the season, with two coming against the Rams in Week 3. His two forced fumbles have him tied for third in the league.
