The Kansas City Chiefs improved to 8-0 on the season after defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 30-24, in overtime on Monday Night Football.
The Manning brothers, Peyton and Eli, naturally covered the game on ESPN on their popular weekly program, the ManningCast, on ESPN2.
After the Chiefs win, the 43-year-old two-time Super Bowl MVP did a celebratory headstand to the delight of his brother and their guest, comedic actor Jason Sudeikis (“Ted Lasso”).

Sudeikis, a former Saturday Night Live alum who has gone on to win Golden Globes and Emmy awards, is an ardent supporter of the Kansas City Chiefs.
Incarnate Word wide receiver Jalen Walthall started the now-viral headstand celebration trend ahead of the NFL’s Week 9 slate. Since then, players all over the country have been breaking it out, including Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London and Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown this past Sunday.
Manning may have stumbled a bit at first but he ultimately nailed it.
