Thanks to retiring Sen. Bob Corker, fellow Tennesseean Peyton Manning is being forced to relive his “mooning” incident of 1996.
A female trainer called it more of a humiliating naked “face-sitting” incident.
Manning, whose NFL QB career will lead to the Hall of Fame, is the subject of chatter on the political front.
Politico reported: “The outgoing GOP senator said he spoke with Manning on Wednesday morning, one day after Corker said he won’t run for a third term. Corker said Manning is enjoying private life and time with his family but would be a formidable force if he were to run for the seat.”
Corker said of Manning: “If he were to run, nobody in their right mind would consider running against him.”
But the NFL star who retired in 2016 isn’t done explaining what a female physical trainer alleges from 1996, when Manning was 19.
“In a transcript of a deposition taken during the defamation case [involving the trainer], she recalled Manning dropping his trousers and sitting on her face,” said the Daily Mail.
“It was the gluteus maximus, the rectum, the testicles and the area in between the testicles. And all that was on my face when I pushed him up,” said Jamie Ann Naughright, who made a sex harassment claim against him with the University of Tennesseee at the time but never pressed charges. “To get leverage, I took my head out to push him up and off.”
She was reportedly paid a $300,000 settlement and agreed to leave her job, according to the Daily Mail.
