Chiefs’ Chris Jones did a Cris Collinsworth impression on ESPN’s ‘ManningCast’
The Chiefs will be playing the Atlanta Falcons on “Sunday Night Football” on Sept. 22, and don’t be shocked if NBC Sports’ Cris Collinsworth is asked to do an imitation of KC’s Chris Jones.
That’s because of what happened when Jones, the Chiefs defensive tackle, joined ESPN’s “ManningCast” on Monday night. The 49ers were crushing the Jets, so the conversation wasn’t all about football.
And that’s why Eli and Peyton Manning asked Jones to do an impression of Collinsworth, and I’ll let you decide if he nailed it.

Fans watching at home weren’t all that impressed with the imitation from Jones, who was on for about half of the fourth quarter with the Manning brothers.
Here is what those fans were saying on X.
