Amen to that!

Throwback jersey.

Celebrate the past glory, not the current losing.

Who the hell knows if Saquon will be here in 5 years? We didn't think the Beckham thing would play out the way it did when he was a rookie.

He should wear it proudly for as long as it fits.

there will be Eli jerseys all over Metlife for years to come

in wearing an Eli jersey, hes a franchise legend. ccant say the same about my beckham jersey that i refuse to wear

middle name is Eli after Eli Manning. Yet, I am fucking psyched that Jones time has arrived...

For all the changes etc we have had over the last 4/5 years, the one thing that needed to change never did. It is now and I am happy for it.

FYI- Ed McCaffrey stated (about 35/40 mins ago on Sirius NFL Radio) that he had inside info that the Giants and Jags had been very close to a deal for Eli 3 years ago but it just couldn't get finished. **He said that in the context that Eli was almost traded back 3 years ago, in a perfect set up for Eli with a Championship possible roster in Jax, but it didn't happen and he can't see any way a trade for Eli happens now.

Yeah I got tired of the player moves and just had a custom jersey made. Then OBJ took off so I had to have his, and Collins seemed like he’d be here for the long haul. Now I’m back to getting a custom Nike jersey lol. However I did pick up a Saquon jersey last year😀

Where jerseys cold be gotten much cheaper than from the NFL store?

that will never go out of style

Years ago there was a place called Fantastic Goods for Chinese knockoffs...

You obviously new Eli was a short timer before ordering the Jersey. But, the timing is pretty funny.

...Eli has had a great Giants career; he is still being paid very well; and now he gets a chance to help advise Daniel Jones.

I think that this one was legit but cheaper. Someone mentioned it last time wrt DJones jerseys.

Seeems like a good omen? ;)

It's like an LT jersey now.

Honest...I just walked in an my wife was holding up the jersey. She didn't even know he had been benched.

I warned him when he ordered it last week. (Keep in mind, he's 16 and wants to wear in a Virginia HS filled with Redskins, Cowboys, and Eagles fans...for some reason, we have a ton of Cowboys and Eagles fans around here).

#1 because Im too cheap to buy another. Got it in 2005? When it was the white with the blue outline on red numbers.

.

and will always wear it proudly.

fell from his bedroom wall recently. The tape gave out. Kind of symbolic I guess.

My son was 2 mos. old in Feb. of '08, so he's been alive for 2 SB championships. Unfortunately he's too young to remember anything but Giant suckiness. Oh well.

I'd rather have the jersey from a team legend that I know won't be traded away after a couple of years. Same should go for Manning, if he was a favorite then so be it.

as the modern 2000s era equivalent of the LT in the 80s. will always be worth owning.

Just to see what happens, thanks

my 5 year old son the news. I have tried to prepare him but he is gonna have a melt down.

Would rather have broke the news to Eli himself...
