Peyton Manning is going hard in the commercial game now that he's super bored in retirement

Peyton Manning might be showing up on our TVs a whole lot more than we thought.

Now that Peyton Manning is retired, have you been wondering what he's going to do every Sunday morning? I know I have. He won't have meetings all week to prepare an offense and gameplan against a defense. He'll have to actually watch the games on Sunday like the rest of us mortals!

Until then, he's trying to drum up spirit for the upcoming season with some DirecTV commercials poking fun at his own retirement. He even got Lionel Richie to give him some intro music playing on the "Easy Like Sunday Morning" song with his own "It's Peyton on Sunday Morning" jingle.

You have to love Manning bro'ing out in his favorite set of bathrobes and talking to some strangers about Sunday Ticket. The old man he talks to gave him some great advice to keep working as long as he can and the sad face he makes when he realizes little brother Eli is still playing is priceless. I hope Manning appears in every major commercial during football games because that would just be the best and prove he is the funniest quarterback to ever live.
