Drew Brees comments on Eli

I get the sense Eli is far more respected in NFL circles than we know.

�you can not write the story of the NFL without including Eli Manning.�

Getting such admiration from Brees and Fitzgerald, two first ballot hall of famers. Well done by them

Thank you. Thought it was great

made me a little emotional

Well said, & I think it will be true too

Quote:

Congratulations on an incredible career. Always a great teammate and friend. Enjoy all the praise because you�ve earned it my friend. Now we can Golf! #ThankYouEli

how can anyone really have a bad thing to say about Eli?

During my NFL career, I�ve been blessed with countless amazing opportunities. But one that is right up there with my absolute greatest is the chance that I got to locker next to you, and be the starting Running Back by your side, homie!

Eli, THANK YOU for showing me what it means to give whatever you do your best, and to always let the game-clock run out before you do! You will go down in history as the only NFL QB to defeat arguably the greatest QB in NFL history (Tom Brady), not once, but twice, IN THE SUPERBOWL!

Sure we have a quarterback for the future in Daniel Jones, but nobody can replace what you�ve done to help solidify the NY Football Giants as the iconic franchise it has become. That�s why I know that #BigBlueNation is going be sad to see you go.

Thank you for adding such an indelible mark of quality to an already iconic team. Love you bro! And just know that I�m already planning to be there when they give you that GOLDEN JACKET� #GMen #ForLife #ShadHumbled 🔵 🐐
