Peyton Manning savagely roasted Jerry Jones and the Cowboys in his CMAs opener

The 2024 CMAs featured country music’s best stars taking home hardware, but of course, co-host Peyton Manning couldn’t resist making a football joke like he did last year.

This time, fellow co-host Lainey Wilson talked about Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan’s hit song, saying, “This year we discovered that ‘Cowboys Cry Too.'”

Manning’s response?

“But enough about Jerry Jones,” he said with a mock wince.

That’s so good. In the middle of a disastrous year for the Dallas Cowboys and their owner, you can’t do any better than that one.

Here are a few clips of the monologue with the Jones joke in there:
