Peyton Manning to appear on NASCAR broadcast

Peyton Manning will call plays from the booth during the NASCAR Sprint Cup Super Series on April 17.

According to FOX Sports, the future hall-of-famer, who retired after the Denver Broncos' Super Bowl 2015 season, will briefly join Mike Joy, Jeff Gordon, and Darrell Waltrip in the booth.

Manning isn't just in Bristol as a broadcaster, though, as he's one of Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s special guests.

The race at Bristol Motor Speedway is set to kick off at 1 p.m. ET.
