Today’s Al Roker taunted co-star Craig Melvin in live shady moment

TODAY host Al Roker sarcastically jokes with his co-star Craig Melvin during a segment on Monday’s episode of the talk show.

Al, 68, shadily taunted his co-anchor Craig, 43, during an on-air conversation about the NFL games that happened on Sunday.

On the show, the meteorologist sat with co-stars Sheinelle Jones, 44, and Craig and inquired about their weekend, which partially centered around enjoying yesterday’s football games.

Sheinelle held up Nick Foles’, 34, jersey, and Craig showed off Travis Kelce’s, 33, while they were perched at the Today table.

Nick’s team, the Philadelphia Eagles, and Travis’ team, The Kansas City Chiefs, both won their respective games on Sunday, leading them to compete at the 2023 Super Bowl in February.

As Craig explained how he and his family enjoyed Sunday’s big game, producers showed a snap of one of his kids watching the competition on the living room TV on live TV.

In Craig’s family snap, there was a life-size cut-out of pro-baller Patrick Mahomes, 27, the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, visible, making Sheinelle curious.

“So you guys have cut-outs now so now that Mahomes can be with you in the moment,” Sheinelle asked Craig.

The NBC personality answered “yes,” revealing to the roundtable that there were “legit life-sized cut-outs…” of Mahomes in his home.

Before Craig could finish his thought, Al interjected and asked sincerely, “where’s my cut-out?”

Making light of his question, Craig responded: “We have yours, [but] we only take you out if we’re celebrating something.”

With a hearty laugh, Al shot back, “you wanna take me out almost everyday.”

Craig laughingly retorted, “no that’s Dylan.”

His clap back earned major giggles from both Sheinelle and Al.

Dylan Dreyer, 41, is a co-host on Today, however, she was out Monday.

WHERE’S DYLAN?

During the show, Al expressed the reason for Dylan’s absence, who recently took a gig at a rival network.

He divulged that Dylan was “a little under the weather this morning.”

Earlier this month, Dylan was away from the show again as she had another gig on The Golf Channel.

The meteorologist played in a golf tournament and her husband, Brian Fichera, was her caddy.

She was in Orlando, Florida, and took part in the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.

The tournament ran from January 19 to 22.

Fans could watch the host perform in the tournament on the Golf Channel, which is owned by NBC’s Sports Group.

Although technically, the Today Show airs on NBC as well, the show was still a rival for the morning show as it took her away from the anchor desk.
