Peyton Manning stepped away from football after the 2015 season to focus on, um, nothing? After walking off with a Super Bowl 50 win while quarterbacking the Broncos, Manning was expected to dive into his next life, but has instead taken his time figuring out what he wants to do.
One thing he hasn't given up? Doing commercials. Manning's still serving as the spokesman for DirecTV's Sunday Ticket platform, but this year there's no "Football Cops" or Eli/Peyton dressing up as rappers.
Nope, now it's just Peyton wandering around in a bathrobe on Sunday morning -- with Lionel Richie playing a knockoff "Easy Like Sunday Morning" in the background! -- trying to figure out what to do with his life.
He went to the park where old people hang out. It wasn't very exciting.
Then he went to the grocery store. Ah yes, 18. The old number.
And he even just sat at home, trying to get a hold of people to hang out. Like his brother Eli Manning, who had something else to do on a Sunday morning.
It's hilariously sad. Not so sad -- DirecTV is doing a pretty cool special this year for students, allowing anyone at a two- or four-year college or university to get a discounted package price on Sunday Ticket.
