Saquon Barkley, Joel McHale and Shannon Sharpe will be the first guests of Peyton and Eli Manning’s ESPN show Manningcast’s 2022 season. The show will coincide with the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks Monday Night Football matchup.

Barkley is coming off a stellar season-opening performance, rushing for 164 yards on a 9.1 ypc average and a touchdown – good for tops in the NFL – in the New York Giants’ 21-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans.

Joel McHale, an actor best known for his role in Community along with Ted and various other films, will join following Barkley. FOX Sports’ co-host of Undisputed and former Denver Broncos great Shannon Sharpe will be the final guest of the night for the Manning brothers. The show is set to begin two minutes prior to Monday Night Football’s broadcast.

Saquon Barkley scores two-point conversion to lift Giants to 21-20 victory over Titans

Saquon Barkley made it crystal clear all offseason long that he was sick and tired of all the doubters. He was ready to have a monster season and prove everyone wrong. On Sunday, the New York Giants franchise tailback began his campaign to back up his words in a big way, posting a monster performance that reminded everyone of his freakish ability.

He scored a two-point conversion in the final minute to lift the Giants to a heart-stopping victory over the Tennessee Titans, 21-20.

Following the two-point conversion by the Giants, the Titans drove the ball down the field and actually had a chance to win the game. Their kicker, Randy Bullock, missed a potential game-winning 47-yard field goal as time expired. And the Giants could officially celebrate.

On the ground, Saquon Barkley racked up 164 rushing yards on 18 carries and a touchdown. As a receiver, he hauled in six catches for 30 receiving yards.

The former Penn State star dominated on Sunday afternoon and showed everyone that he’s still got the same juice that at one point, propelled him to becoming one of the best running backs in the league. His career has been slowed by numerous injuries, but it’s safe to say Barkley looks better than ever before.
