Kickoff from Lincoln Financial Field is set for 8:15 p.m. ET, and the game will be available on ESPN and ESPN+ with the usual commentary team of Troy Aikman and Joe Buck in the booth, and Lisa Salters on the sideline.
ESPN2 will provide the alternate broadcast hosted by the Manning brothers for the second of 11 shows this season. Last week's airing during the 49ers-Jets welcomed several guests, including former Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, actor and noted Jets fan Adam Sandler and Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones.
Here's everything to know about the Week 2 Manningcast guest list, including who will join Peyton and Eli Manning on "Monday Night Football."

Manningcast guests for Week 2
- Bill Belichick, former Patriots head coach
- Miles Teller, actor and lifelong Eagles fan
- Matt Ryan, former NFL quarterback
Bill Belichick
One of the greatest NFL head coaches of all time, Belichick will join the Manningcast for the second week in a row after debuting during the Jets-49ers game. He is expected to appear on every episode this season in addition to weekly cameos on "Inside the NFL" and "The Pat McAfee Show."
Last Monday, Belichick joined the show right away and first made amends with Eli for defeating his Patriots in two Super Bowls. He then analyzed the game with his coaching brain and was clearly comfortable on camera.
The future Hall-of-Famer is establishing himself as a voice in sports media quickly his first year off the sideline. As the Patriots head coach for 23 seasons, Belichick claimed six Super Bowls and won just over 64 percent of his 467 games with New England. His career began to slow after quarterback Tom Brady departed the team after the 2019 campaign, and Belichick parted ways with the Patriots in 2023.

Miles Teller
Best known for his performances in movies "Whiplash," "Top Gun: Maverick," "That Awkward Moment" and the "Divergent" series, actor Miles Teller is also a Philadelphia sports superfan. Having made appearances at both Phillies and Eagles games, Teller is well established in the city's fandom.
Therefore, it's no surprise the 37-year-old is set to appear on the Manningcast this week as Philadelphia takes on Atlanta at home. Though Teller is primarily a baseball fan after having grown up playing the sport, he's proven himself as an avid football follower as well.
Teller attended the Super Bowl between the Eagles and Chiefs earlier this year with his wife Keleigh Sperry, who is also a good friend of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's girlfriend and pop star Taylor Swift. The two spent the game in the Kelce suite with Swift before Kansas City eventually went home with the Lombardi.

Matt Ryan
With Teller serving as the Eagles guest, the Manning brothers will also feature former Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan on the show. Ryan is from the Philadelphia area, born in Exton, Pennsylvania — around an hour west of the city.
The 39-year-old was drafted third overall by Atlanta out of Boston College in the 2008 NFL Draft, where he spent 14 seasons under center. He played one year with the Colts before taking off the pads after the 2022 campaign. Ryan ended his career having made a case for Hall of Fame status, earning several accolades including NFL MVP (2016), NFL Offensive Player of the Year (2016) and four Pro Bowl selections (2010, 2012, 2014, 2016).
Since retiring, Ryan has entered a career in broadcasting as a game analyst for CBS. He shifted roles this year to appear on the network's revamped "The NFL Today" pregame show alongside James Brown, Bill Cowher, JJ Watt and Nate Burleson.

Miles Teller Peyton Manning impression
In October 2022, Teller hosted "Saturday Night Live." Coincidentally, the show's Cold Open was a skit poking fun at the Manningcast with the actor playing Peyton. Teller mastered the former quarterback's signature accent and gabbed alongside comedian Andrew Dismukes, who played Eli, for nearly seven minutes at the beginning of the show.
The two discussed former President Donald Trump and were eventually joined by Jon Hamm and Shaun White as the bit went on. The real Eli responded to the skit quickly after, reposting a clip on X and commenting, "To get made fun of on SNL, a dream come true."
Here's the full skit featuring Teller and Dismukes and Peyton and Eli:
