In preparation for the Denver Broncos‘ Week 1 showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football, NBC commentator and former Indianapolis Colts‘ Head Coach Tony Dungy visited Dove Valley on Monday to talk with a few familiar faces.

Dungy spoke with quarterback Peyton Manning, wide receiver Brandon Stokley and tight end Jacob Tamme, all former Colts, on the sideline after the team’s Monday practice session.  Dungy also spoke briefly with Coach John Fox before conducting a one-on-one interview with Manning for NBC.

The Dungy-Manning interview will partially air Wednesday night on NBC when the New York Giants open the season against the Dallas Cowboys and the remaining portion of the interview will air during and leading up to Sunday Night Football this weekend.  The interview is, “Insightful and very well done,” according to Broncos’ PR ace Patrick Smyth.

Dungy also took a few moments to talk to BroncosTV’s Chris Hall (video, audio).  Dungy and Manning won a Super Bowl together in 2007 (SB XLI).

We’ll be looking forward to the interview.  Kickoff is now less than six days away!
