Chad Powers, the newest comedy streaming on Hulu, has a fascinating origin. Real-life NFL quarterback Eli Manning thought it would be a good idea to go undercover at a college tryout and shock all the attendees with his skills. The result was a hilarious skit for his show, Eli's Places, that went viral ons several occasions. But that was far from the end of the story, as Top Gun: Maverick star Glen Powell and Loki creator Michael Waldron believed that the skit's concept could work as a scripted TV show.
