Bengals’ JaMarr Chase catches passes from Peyton Manning’s son at Pro Bowl

A really cool current-future link occurred at the Pro Bowl over the weekend.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver JaMarr Chase was one of the notable AFC players warming up for Peyton Manning’s team on Sunday at the Pro Bowl.

His involvement was a little more noteworthy than simple warmups, too — he was catching passes from Peyton Manning’s son, Marshall Manning.

It didn’t take long for the footage to go viral, with the attention, understandably, more on the young Manning as opposed to Chase.

Still, it was cool to see the link and most onlookers came away impressed with Marshall’s seemingly sound form, pocket presence and zip.

The highlight in question that went viral:

Marshall Manning (Peyton’s son) steals the show at the Pro Bowl

Peyton Manning’s son, Marshall, showed off his strong arm at the Pro Bowl in Orlando.

Marshall Manning’s done it again.

Two years ago, Peyton Manning’s son went viral after practicing with the AFC squad at the 2023 Pro Bowl. Marshall, 13, was back in Orlando this week for the 2025 Pro Bowl and he once again stole the spotlight.

The Indianapolis Colts uploaded a video of Marshall helping AFC players at practice ahead of Sunday’s flag football game. Check it out:

Here’s another clip from Omaha Productions:

Peyton Manning finished his career with the Broncos and he still lives in the Denver area and frequently attends games with Marshall. Marshall has appeared on the ManningCast for visual play demonstrations, and he made headlines in 2023 when his youth football league banned him from running the “Tush Push” play.

Marshall’s cousin, Arch Manning, is a redshirt sophomore at Texas. They have another cousin, Charley Manning, who is also a young quarterback. Arch is the son of Cooper Manning; Charley is Eli Manning’s son.

The Manning family’s football legacy appears to have a bright future.

Peyton Manning attended the Broncos game instead of doing a ‘ManningCast’

There was no ‘ManningCast’ in Week 13 because Peyton Manning attended the Broncos game in person with his son, Marshall.

There was no ManningCast for the thrilling Monday Night Football clash between the Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns at Empower Field at Mile High last night.

It seems that Peyton Manning preferred to attend the game in person.

Peyton, who spent the final four years of his career with the Broncos, still lives in the Denver area and he attends many of the team’s home games. He was on the sideline with his son, Marshall, ahead of Monday’s game.

Marshall was rocking a throwback Pat Surtain jersey. Isaiah J. Downing of Imagn Images captured this photo of Peyton and his son before the game:

Although it would have been entertaining for viewers to watch Peyton’s reactions to all of Monday’s shenanigans, Peyton certainly picked a fun game to attend in person while taking a break from the ManningCast schedule.

Peyton and Eli Manning will return next week with a ManningCast for the Dallas Cowboys-Cincinnati Bengals game in Week 14.

Arch Manning wins first college start at Texas (watch his highlights)

Arch Manning threw two touchdown passes (and two interceptions) in his first college start on Saturday, a 51-3 win over ULM.

Texas Longhorns redshirt freshman quarterback Arch Manning started the first game of his college career against the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks on Saturday, a 51-3 win at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin.

Arch threw an interception on his first drive but bounced back with two touchdown passes. He later had another pass intercepted after it slipped through a teammate’s hands.

Arch finished the game 15-of-29 passing for 258 yards with two scores and two turnovers.

In his two appearances before Saturday’s start, Arch totaled 371 yards from scrimmage and scored seven touchdowns (five passing and two rushing). Arch started in the place of an injured Quinn Ewers against UL Monroe.

Arch Manning highlights

Elsewhere in the Manning family, Arch’s younger cousin, Charley (6), made his flag football debut on Saturday. Charley is the son of Eli Manning.

Arch is the son of Cooper Manning, the older brother of Eli and Peyton who had his football career cut short by spinal stenosis after high school.

Peyton’s son, Marshall (13), is also a quarterback, so with a trio of Mannings lining up under center, football fans can look forward to the Manning era continuing for years to come.

Arch wasn’t the only Manning who made his first start on Saturday

Charley Manning (6) made his first flag football start on Saturday. Like his cousins Arch (19) and Marshall (13), Charley is a quarterback.

Arch Manning (19) made the first start of his college career on Saturday night when the Texas Longhorns hosted the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin.

Arch’s younger cousin, Charley (6) also made his first football start on Saturday. Eli Manning posted a video of his son playing flag football on his Twitter/X page.

“Arch is not the only Manning to get his first start today,” Eli captioned the video of Charles completing a pass:

Arch is the son of Cooper Manning, who is the older brother of former NFL quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Eli Manning.

Peyton’s son, Marshall (13), is a youth football player who has shown off his strong arm at the Pro Bowl. Marshall is also a quarterback, and his youth football league banned his team from running the “Tush Push” play.

Arch won’t be eligible for the NFL draft before 2026 at the earliest. While Arch plays in college, Marshall is nearing high school and Charley is just beginning his football journey. May the Manning era long continue.

Marshall Manning said Pro Bowl was ‘scripted’ after Eli beat Peyton

“You know the refs won the game,” Marshall Manning said after his dad, Peyton, lost to Eli at the Pro Bowl. “It’s scripted. It’s scripted.”

After Eli Manning coached the NFC to a 64-59 victory over Peyton Manning and the AFC on Sunday afternoon, his nephew suggested the game was rigged.

“You know the refs won the game,” Marshall Manning told Eli at midfield. “It’s scripted. It’s scripted.”

Conspiracy theorists will point to Marshall’s comments as evidence that the NFL is rigged, but a more likely explanation is that Marshall has adopted his father’s signature sense of humor and entertainment.

When Peyton broke the NFL’s touchdown record in 2014, Denver Broncos wide receivers played keep away with the football when the QB went to collect it. We later found out that Peyton had the WRs rehearse that moment at practice before the game.

The record was real. The pass was real. But the funny-in-the-moment reaction was staged by Peyton himself. It’s possible that Marshall’s Pro Bowl comments were also planted. At the very least, Marshall could have picked up on the faux beef between Peyton and Eli and he took advantage of an opportune time to add fuel to the narrative fire.

Now I sound like a conspiracy theorist.

Regardless of whether or not Marshall was being serious, it was a funny — and entertaining — moment at the Pro Bowl. Like father, like son.

Peyton Manning took his son to NFL playoff games over weekend

Peyton Manning and his son, Marshall, watched the Ravens beat the Texans on Saturday and then saw the Lions defeat the Bucs on Sunday.

It must be pretty fun being the son of Peyton Manning.

The former NFL quarterback took his son, Marshall, to a pair of Divisional Round playoff games over the weekend. Peyton and Marshall first watched the Baltimore Ravens defeat the Houston Texans 34-10 in Maryland on Saturday. Marshall wore a Lamar Jackson jersey to the game.

After that, the Mannings traveled to Michigan to watch the Detroit Lions defeat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31-23 on Sunday. Marshall wore a throwback Barry Sanders jersey to the Lions game.

Last year, Peyton and Marshall traveled the Philadelphia Eagles-New York Giants game and the Buffalo Bills-Cincinnati Bengals game in a similar two-day divisional round trek.

The Ravens will host the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game on Sunday and the Lions will go on the road to face the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC title game. The winners of those matchups will advance to Super Bowl LVIII.

If not at the conference championship games next weekend, we might see Peyton and Marshall at the Super Bowl in February. Such is the life of football royalty.

Peyton Manning using kids on the ‘ManningCast’ reminded viewers of funny ‘SNL’ skit

Peyton Manning had his son, Marshall, and four other kids practicing on the ‘ManningCast,’ reminding football fans of that classic SNL skit.

Peyton Manning is back on ESPN2 with his brother, Eli, this season for Year 3 of the ManningCast, an alternate broadcast of Monday Night Football for 10 games each fall.

Peyton and Eli invite guests to appear on the show each week — last week featured Aaron Rodgers, Klay Thompson and Tiffany Haddish — and the 49ers-Vikings game also featured appearances from five of the smallest guests in ManningCast history.

Peyton had his son, Marshall, and four of his friends demonstrate how San Francisco uses pre-snap movement to disorganize a defense.

“Go do your homework, boys,” Peyton says after the demonstration.

Check it out:

“Is this what you do — do you yell at your players like that,” Eli asked Peyton after the demonstration. “Do you yell at them all the time?”

Eli was obviously joking, but he wasn’t the only one who teased Peyton for the demonstration on Monday. Many football fans were reminded of Peyton’s hilarious Saturday Night Live skit from 2007.

WATCH: Peyton Manning’s son shows off arm at Pro Bowl

Hold the phone! Marshall Manning has a cannon!

While Arch Manning will be generating plenty of buzz over the next few years, Peyton Manning’s son, Marshall, is already showing signs of being a team’s future franchise quarterback.

As Peyton was preparing as the head coach of the AFC squad in the Pro Bowl games this week—taking on his brother Eli—Marshall showed off his strong arm.

Despite being 11 years old, Marshall certainly has the makings of being a quarterback in the future.

While that first throw was completed to former Colts tight end Marcus Pollard, who totaled 34 touchdowns during his seven seasons with the team, Marshall also got to throw some passes to arguably the best wide receiver in the league.

As Arch is set to begin his journey at Texas and eventually the NFL, Marshall could be another Manning waiting in the wings to make a team better at the quarterback position.

WATCH: Peyton Manning’s son, Marshall, shows off strong arm at the Pro Bowl

Yup, that’s 11-year-old Marshall Manning slinging it at the Pro Bowl.

Look out, the next great Manning quarterback might be on the way.

Marshall Manning, the son of five-time NFL MVP Peyton Manning, is 11 years old now and has been growing up on the sidelines of NFL games. He’s been coached by his dad — and some of Peyton’s former teammates — in flag football for several years now, and Marshall has developed quite the arm.

Marshall is in Las Vegas this week to attend the Pro Bowl Games. The AFC is being coached by Peyton while the NFC is being coached by Eli Manning (the brothers teamed up to film some funny commercials to promote the Pro Bowl).

Before the Pro Bowl’s flag football game on Sunday, Marshall showed off his arm by connecting with former Indianapolis Colts tight end Marcus Pollard, who was covered by ex-Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis.

Check it out:

https://www.instagram.com/p/CoSbJH9JpJG/

“That’s a good little arm now,” Lewis said after the pass.

Catching passes from a Manning is nothing new for Pollard, who totaled 34 touchdown receptions during his seven-year run with Peyton in Indy.

It looks like Marshall threw from about the 10-yard line to about the 20-yard line, which would be about a 20-yard pass on the Pro Bowl’s modified 50-yard field. Not bad for an 11-year-old kid.

Another deep pass from Manning:

And a strike from the AFC’s practice last night:

Marshall’s older cousin, Arch (the son of Peyton and Eli’s brother, Cooper) just completed a record-breaking high school career at Isidore Newman in Louisiana and he’s now set to play college football for the University of Texas. The Manning’s football story might not be over just yet.
