Peyton wants to coach U.S. flag football team at 2028 Olympics

Peyton Manning is looking to add Olympic coach to his resume.

During an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" on Thursday, the Hall of Fame quarterback volunteered to coach the U.S. flag football team at the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

"You hear about NFL players sorta campaigning to be on that team - it's scary to think Lamar Jackson and Tyreek Hill. But I'd like to be a coach on that team," Manning said.

Manning joked that he likely won't get the job because of his 0-2 record as an honorary coach in the NFL Pro Bowl's flag football game.

"Kyle Shanahan, Sean McVay might be more qualified," he said. "I'd be curious how many NFL teams let their coaches or players miss training camp to go participate in the Olympics. Just to add something else to Roger Goodell's plate."

The 2028 Games will feature the debut of flag football and squash, along with the return of baseball/softball, cricket, and lacrosse.

Several NFL players have already expressed interest in playing on the Olympic flag football team, including Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons.
