EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Eli Manning jogged onto the field for the first day of training-camp practice with his trademark gallop. It was the same look the New York Giants have seen for the past 14 years. Shoulders slightly slumped, chin held high, short steps and an aw-shucks wobble supporting his stringy, 37-year-old frame.
Manning doesn't have the chiseled body type sported by many of his teammates. He's not known for his work with heavy weights or his bench press. He also doesn't sport a gut or the love handles that plague most men his age.
