anyone ever see this? Some TMZ reporter thought he was asking Eli Manning questions at LAX, and it turned out to be just some regular guy

The second they get a direct shot of the guy it's obvious, it's only when it's at an angle and he's moving that you don't know for sure.
He doesn't

look tall enough. Eli doesn't look especially big when he's on the field with a bunch of abnormally large NFL players but he's a pretty big guy when compared to normal individuals.

I was watching Sesame Street with my two year old yesterday and noticed Erik Flowers in the intro. Took a screen cap to verify

This was my thought. Guy looks short.
I saw Eli at Newark airport about a year ago

The one thing that really stands out is his height.

That, plus he was with his family and small entourage using the United VIP services....

Same, the height looks off.. but man, the rest is pretty spot on lol
He looks shorter

But the face and hair is a REALLY damn close. If you had never met him in person (I haven't) I would bet money you would think it was him. Positive I would (Unless this guy is under 6 ft)

Yea the hair and over all profile were pretty damn close.
It's a fair resemblance

If you stop and think about it, yeah, the height is clearly wrong. On the other hand, if you don't see these guys up close you can forget how much bigger they are than average people. You're used to seeing them around other players, who are also mostly tall guys.

I remember seeing Tino Martinez once and being surprised by how big he was.
I met Charles Mann a few years back  
bradshaw44 : 6/12/2017 12:39 pm : link
I still think he's bigger then most NFL players. I was shocked how big he was.
the NBA is where it's crazy

I remember in college seeing UVA guard Curtis Staples (the former NCAA 3pt record holder before JJ Redick broke it) walking around grounds. He looked so small on the court, but he was 6'3" and towered over most of the people around him.
