Two-time Super Bowl champ Peyton Manning’s name has been tossed into the political arena once again.
Retiring Rep. Jimmy Duncan, R-Tenn., recently told TMZ that Manning, a beloved son of the Volunteer State since his days at the University of Tennessee, could run for just about anything and win.
Manning led the Broncos to the NFL title with a 24-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50.
“I love Peyton Manning and, in fact, if Peyton Manning ran for any office in Tennessee, he could win by a landslide,” Duncan said.
That’s a big endorsement coming from the longest-serving Tennessean on Capitol Hill.
