The Philadelphia Eagles’ first home matchup against the Dallas Cowboys will receive an alternate presentation from two of football’s most recognizable personalities. Peyton and Eli Manning will return for the sixth season of “Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli,” and the Eagles’ Week 7 matchup against the Cowboys is included on the 2026 ManningCast schedule, ESPN announced Tuesday.
Dallas will visit Philadelphia on Oct. 26 for an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The ManningCast presentation will begin at 8 p.m. on ESPN2 and the ESPN App, complementing the traditional “Monday Night Football” broadcast. The NFC East rivalry is one of 11 regular-season games currently scheduled for the alternate telecast. ESPN will announce one additional game later
in the season.
Former Eagles center Jason Kelce also made a cameo in ESPN’s promotional video announcing the return of the Manning brothers. The “ManningCast: Heist” campaign includes several stars from sports and entertainment while previewing the show’s journey through ESPN’s first Super Bowl season.
2 Brothers, 40 Cameos, 0 Clue.

The sixth season will introduce “Manning Mode,” an expanded film-room experience powered by the NFL’s Next Gen Stats and artificial intelligence. The feature will provide real-time data, advanced analytics, and predictive information while allowing Peyton and Eli to analyze plays alongside their guests.
The ManningCast schedule begins Sept. 14 with the Denver Broncos visiting the Kansas City Chiefs. It also includes the Los Angeles Chargers’ Week 10 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens and will conclude with an alternate presentation of Super Bowl LXI on Feb. 14, 2027.
It will mark the first time Peyton and Eli have provided a ManningCast for the Super Bowl.
For Eagles fans, the Oct. 26 presentation will offer another way to watch one of the NFL’s best rivalries. Peyton and Eli will deliver their usual mix of analysis and entertainment, while Kelce’s appearance in the promotional campaign gives Philadelphia an added connection to the show.
