Which NFL stars will feature in upcoming Netflix's "Quarterback" series? Everything you need to know
We are in the days of fans wanting all access to behind-the-scenes views of athletes, and now the NFL has done just that. After partnering with Netflix, the league has launched a new docuseries called "Quarterback."
The series gives fans a look behind the curtains of the 2022 season through the lens of several quarterbacks. In a move sure to draw viewers, the league is the latest in a long line of sporting organizations to do this.
There was the Formula 1 series called "Drive," the golf series called "Full Swing" and now "Quarterback" is hitting the screens. It remains to be seen if the NFL's version will be as popular as the F1 and golf series, but it's imaginable that it will be.
The quarterbacks featured in the series include Super Bowl winner Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings star Kirk Cousins and Marcus Mariota of the Atlanta Falcons.
When will NFL's upcoming "Quarterback" series premiere on Netflix?
The league's docuseries has already generated plenty of buzz from fans, and many can't wait to see it. But when will it be ready to view?
Per NFL.com, the series will premiere in the summer of 2023. It focuses on the three quarterbacks, following them on and off the field, including a look at their families as well.
Given that Mahomes was one of the quarterbacks chosen and the fact that he won the Super Bowl, that is going to give fans a superb ride. Kirk Cousins and his Vikings had a good season as well before falling to the New York Giants. Meanwhile, the Falcons' season under Mariota was up and down.
Either way, we only have to wait a few months before we can cast our eye on the series.
What is Peyton Manning's role in Netflix's "Quarterback" series?
While Netflix is listed as the big streaming platform for "Quarterback," former player Peyton Manning, through his production company, Omaha Productions, is also listed as a producer.
Why is this good?
Well, if there is one player who can help give fans the best viewing experience when it comes to quarterbacks, it's Manning.
After having a superb career, Manning will be able to give great insights about what fans want to see, and that experience should be reflected in the final product.
