The former NFL MVP and two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback is hosting a new "history docu-series" called Peyton's Places on Disney's ESPN+, the company's sports streaming service. It's set to debut on July 15. Manning will reportedly travel around the United States, revisiting "seminal moments" in NFL history in a 30-episode season.
