ESPN’s Manningcast may have had their most bizarre guest appearance yet.
During Monday Night football’s Manningcast of the Cowboys-Giants game, comedian Tracy Morgan joined Peyton and Eli to watch the third quarter.

As soon as Morgan got on, he bragged about having dinner with the President of Ferrari.

Morgan would later bizarrely claim that Tony Dorsett was his father and Herschel Walker was his cousin.
“My dad was Tony Dorsett. He drove a white van and sold fish out of the back”

Tracy Morgan says Tony Dorsett is his biological father and Herschel Walker is his uncle.
Check that, now he says Wilbert Montgomery is his father. 🤦🏻♂️

Tony Dorsett reacted to Morgan’s Manningcast appearance.
Say what now @TracyMorgan

Morgan also claimed that he went to high school with Saquon Barkley’s father and bizarrely asked Peyton Manning if he had played against Lawrence Taylor, who is much older than Peyton.
oh my god Eli’s reaction after Tracy said he went to high school with Saquon Barkley’s father.
“I might actually believe that one.”

Tracy Morgan: "Peyton, what was it like playing against Lawrence Taylor?"
Peyton: "Uhhh LT's rookie year was 1982. I was six."#ManningCast #MNF https://t.co/3BCcEFqKvC

Morgan got a mixed reaction to his appearance on Monday Night Football.
ESPN spent like $30 million on Joe Buck and Troy Aikman and I'm not sure why anyone would watch them. The Mannings can make a lifeless Giants-Cowboys puntfest entertaining. And now they're bringing on Tracy Morgan. This is just a great idea.

Peyton Manning to an extremely baked Tracy Morgan: “Stay with us, I wanna hear more about who you went to high school with.”
Dude I have never laughed so hard watching football
