Yes, Peyton Manning did retire from pro football. But that doesn’t mean the legendary quarterback is staying out of the spotlight.

Manning attended Wednesday night’s Country Music Awards and made his presence known during the 50th edition of the event.

At the award show, held at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Manning participated in an offbeat musical exchange with Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood, based on his well-known line of commercials for Nationwide Insurance.

The Indianapolis Star posted video from ABC’s broadcast, showing Manning in action.

Manning also presented the CMA’s Pinnacle Award to Kenny Chesney.
