Eli Manning is retiring. How will we remember his career?
An illustrious football career spanning four award-winning collegiate seasons and 16 years in the NFL has officially come to an end.
Ole Miss and New York Giants legend Eli Manning will announce his retirement from football on Friday, according to ESPN.
The 39-year-old quarterback was selected with the first overall pick by the San Diego Chargers in the 2004 NFL Draft, but immediately forced his way to the Giants, where he eventually became the undisputed leader of one of the most storied franchises in professional sports with two Super Bowl MVP awards to show.
