Gridiron Clay?

Short article from the Raleigh News & Observer.

Gridiron Clay?
By DAVID MENCONI, Staff Writer

One of the weirdest recent Clay Aiken sightings happened on last week's "Monday Night Football" on ABC. During halftime of the Denver-Kansas City game, talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel interviewed the Raleigh "American Idol" star on the subject of how a struggling quarterback can regain his form -- as though Aiken were a quarterback.
The spot was apparently a riff on how close Aiken's name is to former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman. Aiken was introduced as a three-time Super Bowl winner (the number of Super Bowl rings Aikman won). He wore a jersey bearing Aikman's No. 8 while staying in character as a quarterback, demonstrating the basic mechanics of throwing a football. Yes, Aiken threw the ball to Kimmel; no, his throw would not have impressed football scouts who might have been watching.

Back on the day job, Aiken's next scheduled Triangle performance is a Christmas show Dec. 22 at Raleigh's RBC Center.
