Arguably one of the best quarterbacks to have ever played, Peyton Manning put together an 18-year NFL career that began with a #1 selection in the 1998 Draft and ended with a second Super Bowl championship. In between, he set numerous records, appeared in four Super Bowls, winning two, became both a Super Bowl MVP and five-time NFL MVP, and was a Pro Bowl selection an astounding 14 times. In recognition of his unparalleled success, he was named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2021 in his first year of eligibility.

His legacy on the field is matched only by the high emphasis he places on excellence in his off-field endeavors, which has allowed him to stay relevant to football fans and recognizable to new audiences in the time since his retirement in 2016. Manning’s down-to-earth personality and “everyman” persona has catapulted his career as a pitchman, while his charisma and sense of humor has put him in some of the biggest entertainment spotlights. His most recent media endeavors include hosting NBC’s Capital One College Bowl, expanding his celebrated Peyton’s Places show on ESPN+ to incorporate other sports and athlete hosts, and partnering with his brother, Eli, to produce a new MegaCast feed for Monday Night Football games on ESPN2.

Peyton is equally as recognized for his unmatched leadership and quality of character. He has championed numerous charitable organizations and foundations to further his positive impact on the community including the PeyBack Foundation, which he founded in an effort to help underprivileged youth in Louisiana, Tennessee, Indiana, and Colorado. In 2007, the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital was named in his honor, symbolizing the type of impact Peyton and his wife had on the Indianapolis community.
