The video is promoting Flag & Anthem, a premium clothing company that produces detailed and quality clothing at an affordable price point, who McCaffery is partnered with. It’s always fun when a couple of Denver stars get together. See McCaffery on the field with the Carolina Panthers this football season and Brandt on the Comedy Works stage!
