Archie Manning is doing some clean-up after showing up in a viral video linking grandson Arch Manning to the Dallas Cowboys.
In a new interview, Manning tried to walk back the comments he made in the viral TikTok, in which he said he would love to see Arch play for the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL. The elder Manning said the comments got “out of hand,” and that he was just trying to be “nice to a patron” at his New Orleans sports bar.
“That is something that kind of got out of hand,” Manning said. “I have a sports bar in New Orleans and I was just being nice to a patron. I told him I hope Arch will play three years of college football and he said, ‘And then maybe to the Cowboys?’ I said, ‘That’d be fine with me.’ I didn’t know he was going to put that on TikTok or whatever. I don’t know what TikTok is. I didn’t know it would go viral, as they say.”
