Almost 16 years ago, a 23-year-old quarterback out of the University of Mississippi by the name of Eli Manning was selected No. 1 overall by the then-San Diego Chargers in the 2004 NFL Draft. He was subsequently traded to the New York Giants and the rest is history.
The Mannings had become a household name after decades of dominance. Eli had to fill the giant shoes of his MVP brother Peyton and Pro-Bowl father. After 16 years, he will end his time with the Giants as a future Hall of Famer (assuming he doesn’t return in 2020).
