Published:
Eli Manning and his big brother Peyton seemingly have a never-ending desire to stoke the sibling rivalry fire.
It surfaced again on the latest episode of the ESPN+ streaming show, “Eli’s Places.”
“I got a feel for this thing, Peyton used to call me a dummy and tackle me as a kid,” Eli said in an episode of “Eli’s Places” recorded at Southern Cal with former NFL and USC star Willie McGinest.
Even though this is episode 3, there’s already been plenty of interesting characters and more to come on the show: Those include Tim Tebow, Cam Newton, Vince Young, Matt Leinart, Tom Coughlin, Jim McMahon, Brady Quinn and Peyton Manning.
Eli’s Places is produced by NFL Films and it’s executive produced by Omaha Productions, an entertainment company launched by Peyton Manning following his retirement from the NFL. Omaha Productions also executive produces ESPN’s Monday Night Football with Peyton & Eli.
The Mannings are proving that appear to have as many talents in entertainment as they did as quarterbacks.
