Giants and QB Eli Manning hope to have an extension done before training camp

The New York Giants are very confident a deal will get done with quarterback Eli Manning "at some point", however, they would prefer to get a deal done before training camp opens on July 31. They are willing to wait until next offseason if need be. The team does not believe Manning will look to go elsewhere when his contract expires next season. The extension is expected to be similar to the four-year $87.4 million contract Ben Roethlisberger signed. Manning's agent Tom Condon believes he is built to play in New York. "Eli obviously is a unique human being and a terrific guy, so I think that he's uniquely suited to be the New York Giant quarterback," Condon said.
