Pat McAfee has accepted the challenge of Jim Irsay. He will be ready to showcase his skills once again in front of the Colts crowd. However, it won’t be an easy task, because Pat has been out of the game for a good amount of time now.

He retired from the NFL in 2017. Since then he has been involved in the media. As a result, he will need to get into the lab and work on his skills again to win the challenge. Moreover, the winning prize is very high, and Pat would give his best to achieve that. The $3 million dollars which will be given to charities, could really help many people, and McAfee will be giving his all to make it happen.
