NFL quarterback siblings Peyton and Eli Manning have released a hilarious new rap music video.

Peyton, of the Denver Broncos, and Eli, of the New York Giants, have teamed up to release an advert for US TV channel DirecTV, who have launched a new channel dedicated to the wildly popular fantasy football.

This isn't the first time the brothers have teamed up for the channel. Around this time last year they made an advert to promote the channel's mobile content - their father Archie, also a former NFL quarterback, also made an appearance.

That single, 'Football on your Phone', racked up 8.2m YouTube views.

The Mannings' newest song, 'Fantasy Football Fantasy', does not feature Archie, instead NFL legend Joe Namath has joined up. In typical Joe Namath fashion he is seen putting moves on a lady.

The nonsensical lyrics have to be heard to be believed.

Peyton, now 38, will enter this season hoping to recover from his poor performance in February's Super Bowl XLVIII. Winning the MVP after one of the best regular season's ever, he struggled against the Seattle Seahawks who dominated on their way to a 43-8 win.

Younger brother Eli had a poor season as the Giants missed the season following a 7-9 record.
