Eli Manning is one of the best players to play for the New York Giants. The retired QB is almost loved by everyone because of his great personality and unbeatable charm.
The 41-year-old has retired and is focusing on his own show ‘ManningCast’ which is hosted alongside another legend of the game and his brother Peyton Manning.
Eli decided to go back to the old New York stomping ground where he once dominated to show support when the Giants were facing the Lions. Although the Giants lost the game, the energy around the stadium during pregame was electric and out of control.
The side talk NYC conducted one-minute street shows during the game, combined with Eli to surprise the Giants fans as they state their love for the former Giants QB.
During an interview with a fan, Eli came up behind the person and he went nuts. The people around couldn’t believe that Manning had shown up.
The former QB also signed a fan’s forehead resulting in him being called “The man of the people.” Although its debatable whether Eli is the more talented Manning brother or not, he surely is climbing to the top to become the most entertaining Manning brother ever.
Eli Manning was showered with praises on NFL Twitter for his splendid gesture
Eli Manning is truly the man of the people, the former QB was all smiles and didn’t look uncomfortable while celebrating with his fans during this interaction. Football is a sport that brings people together and that was visible when the former QB showed up.
NFL Twitter went berserk after the clip from side talk NYC went viral and everyone showered praises for the 41-year-old. Eli retired in 2019 but is still loved equally by the Giants fans.
Many also pointed out the energy that the Giants fans have when supporting their team. However, that support wasn’t able to get a win for them as they lost the game to the Detroit Lions.
Eli came in for a minute but gave his fans the moment of a lifetime as they got to hang out with the Super Bowl winner. The retired QB did a commendable job and should be praised for his effort.
The New York Giants haven’t been the same since Eli Manning’s retirement in 2019. However, they started this season well but weren’t able to carry the momentum as they are currently third in their division.
