A pair of old Denver Broncos teammates have reunited, this time as actors.
Former Broncos defensive back Omar Bolden and ex-tight end Vernon Davis star in the comedy series Match Point, which will debut on Apple TV and Prime Video on Feb. 11.
The mockumentary was created Sports Emmy-nominated director Joslyn Rose Lyons and Davis served as one of the show’s executive producers.
“Match Point centers on Max (Davis) and Anthony (Bolden), two former tennis stars who co-host a new podcast together,” according to a press release from the show. “The series follows their behind-the-scenes efforts to launch the podcast alongside a high-strung producer (Ashley Haas) and a ratings-obsessed talent booker (Rob Gordon), all while dealing with pushy executives and a dysfunctional crew.”
Check out the one-minute trailer below:
“I’m excited about the unique blend of comedy and mockumentary in this project — it’s a fresh take on podcasting like you’ve never seen before,” Davis said. “Bringing all of us together in this format creates a one-of-a-kind experience, and I can’t wait for viewers to enjoy it.”
Davis, 41, played with the Broncos in 2015, the year they won Super Bowl 50. Bolden, 36, played in Denver from 2012-2015, winning a ring alongside Davis. The first two episodes of their new show will be available to stream on Apple TV and Prime Video on Tuesday.
