Panthers great Luke Kuechly comments on new gig with Peyton Manning

The Athletic chatted with Panthers legend Luke Kuechly about his new job with fellow Hall of Famer Peyton Manning.

Luke Kuechly, a former Carolina Panthers star, has recently taken on a new role in the world of football analysis. While continuing to serve as the defensive coordinator for a high school team in Charlotte, Kuechly also appears in ESPN's Xs and Os preview show alongside NFL legend Peyton Manning. Kuechly expressed his enjoyment of this gig, praising Manning's exceptional knowledge and personality.

He shared that he has been inspired by watching Manning's career, both from afar and up close during their time playing against each other in Denver. Kuechly found Manning's insights on the game to be particularly enlightening, wishing he had known some of these strategies during his own playing days. Despite his current success and enjoyment of his analysis work, Kuechly hints that he may eventually consider a head-coaching position in the future.

However, he admitted that the time commitment involved would be a significant factor in his decision.
