Eli Manning 2022: Net Worth, Salary & Endorsements

Eli Manning is a former NFL player who featured as the New York Giants' quarterback for his 16-season-long playing career. As part of the Manning family, Eli had a rich legacy to live up to.

His father went 2nd overall in the 1971 NFL Draft and whilst Eli was in high school, his elder brother Peyton Manning became the top draft pick at the 1998 NFL Draft. 

Eli Manning played college football for the Ole Miss Rebels, and fans positioned him as the top-pick ahead of the 2004 NFL Draft. However, the quarterback refused to play for the San Diego Chargers, who possessed the year’s prime draft pick. As a result, the Chargers made a deal with the New York Giants, resulting in Philip Rivers getting traded for Manning. 

Manning signed a 6-year contract worth $45 million and was handed the No. 10 Jersey upon his arrival at New York. Like his brother, he seemed impervious to injuries and played in 210 consecutive NFL games. In fact, he never missed a game due to injuries and sat out only in his rookie season where he was the backup and in his final season where the team wanted to test the new draft pick, Daniel Jones. In the 2019 NFL season, the New York Giants used Eli Manning only 4 times in the regular season following which he retired at 39.

Due to his loyalty and successful career as New York Giants quarterback, the franchise announced their move to retire Manning's No. 10 jersey, as per USA Today. The quarterback featured in a Super Bowl commercial with his former New York Giants teammate Odell Beckham Jr.
