McManus went undrafted in the 2013 NFL draft. He was signed on the Colts practice squad later that year but was waived before the season began. Before the 2014 season, the kicker joined the New York Giants practice squad before signing for the Denver Broncos.

McManus helped the Broncos win the Super Bowl in 2015. He left Denver in 2023, to join the Jaguars. After one season in Jacksonville, he signed for the Commanders.

However, just two months after signing with Washington, he has become the NFL's public enemy number one. In a statement this week, the Commanders said:

"Earlier today, we were made aware of the civil lawsuit filed on May 24 against Brandon McManus. We take allegations of this nature very seriously and are looking into the matter. We have been in communication with the League Office and Brandon's representation, and will reserve further comment at this time."

It remains to be seen whether McManus will be able to play for Washington in 2024 amid a sexual allegation lawsuit against him.
