Peyton Manning is unafraid of being in the spotlight. But is he ready to take on the role of Santa Claus? Santa Claus has decided to retire, which has the elves in fits. In a video that is going viral, Manning is shown sitting in Santa’s office when he is asked if he is “ready to become Santa Claus.”

Over the weekend, Disney released a commercial for its upcoming The Santa Clauses series, which included a cameo from a former NFL quarterback. Tim Allen’s Santa Claus (in the commercial) announces his impending retirement and starts interviewing candidates to take his place. Peyton Manning is one of the job candidates.
That is correct! “Yes!” While wearing a pair of red pyjamas with the number 18 on them, Manning says. I can’t wait to smack Tom Brady in the face with this.
Manning responds, “Ho-ho-homaha! ” when Santa asks him to give his best ho-ho-ho. Homaha!” Notice that? Manning tells Santa, “I called a little audible there.”
Manning’s audition doesn’t seem to impress Santa when he adds, “I can sing, by the way.” Santa then says, “Brady can now sing.” Given that Manning already collaborates on a number of Disney-owned projects, such as “Peyton’s Places” and the “ManningCast” for Monday Night Football, his involvement with a Disney+ show comes as no surprise.
Peyton Manning is still competing with Tom Brady
After the 2015 season, Manning retired from the NFL after the Denver Broncos won Super Bowl 50, but he still enjoys competing against legendary Tom Brady, a longtime rival and friend.
As Pablo Escobar once said, “There can only be one king,” and the National Football League can only have one legendary quarterback (NFL). When the phrase “legendary quarterback” is mentioned, only Peyton Manning and Tom Brady come to mind.
Peyton Manning played 18 seasons in the NFL, 14 with the Indianapolis Colts and four with the Denver Broncos before retiring in 2016. He was selected first overall in the 1998 NFL Draft and went on to become one of the League’s best quarterbacks.
He is known not only for his athletic abilities, but also for his high intelligence and offensive strategies, which have helped him win against most opponents.
