Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning will host the 2022 CMA Awards

In addition to performing at the 2022 CMA Awards, Bryan is also hosting the award show with former NFL player Peyton Manning.

“Peyton’s always been a huge country music supporter and fan, and obviously he’s a ginormous star beyond being a football star,” Bryan told People Magazine.

He continued, “He touches a different audience than me, so I think it helps us get into more households and maybe more people tune in to see what kind of crazy shenanigans he and I may be up to.”
