The Denver Broncos called in Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning to help announce their 2021 schedule on Wednesday.
The Broncos tweeted a video of Manning acting as an “intern” with the team’s schedule being shown received as a fax near the end of the clip.
“Ever since my retirement, I’ve maintained this itch to get back into football, and the time has finally come,” Manning says at the beginning of the video. “The Broncos have brought me back and have afforded me the opportunity of a lifetime — a summer internship.”
The video was presented similar to the style of The Office, a popular workplace comedy that aired on NBC from 2005-2013. Manning filled the role well.
Manning’s “internship” duties included delivering mail (by throwing it like a football), shining the Super Bowl 50 logo, seeding the grass, answering the phone (with a call from Eli!), helping in the kitchen and doing laundry (with a little hiccup — sorry, Von Miller!).
The video is just under four minutes long and it has drawn overwhelming positive reviews on Twitter. Denver’s schedule can be viewed here.
