Luke Combs was on the Manningcast on “Monday Night Football”. Before he came on, he filled out a football self-evaluation form. And Eli Manning was surprised how bad the evaluation was. For “skill level” Luke wrote “I suck” . . . For “athleticism” he wrote “I’m not” . . . and for “intelligence” he wrote “not very.” Eli said, “It’s a pretty tough evaluation there Luke, but you were on the team . . . so what was something good about your game?” And Luke said, “Probably that I didn’t play very much. That was the best thing about my game, is that I wasn’t in. So, we won a decent amount of games with no help from me.”

But the big story was about who wasn’t there. Morgan Wallen skipped again. Jelly Roll wasn’t there. And there was no Eric Church, Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and many more.
