Eli Manning was just doing his do diligence as an awesome uncle if you ask me. Apparently, the former NFL star would drill his nephew Arch Manning with footballs to make him tougher when he was younger. Sounds like Arch owes him a."Thank you"...

quote:
“I think my first catch with him, he was like four years old,” Eli, a two-time Super Bowl champion, recalled in an interview with People. “I’m just drilling balls at him and bouncing off so he didn’t cry.

“I had to toughen him up, and make sure he was tough enough to handle this.

No problem with this. Works. Little boys love running around as you throw dodge balls at them trying to trip them up and laugh as they face plant slide for a few feet. They just get up and keep running around trying to avoid it and get upset when Mom comes outside bitching "what are you doing?!"...."ummmmm just toughening the boy up, grab me a beer. Thx"

Heard Arch used to practice tripping Eli to help him from falling over his OL.

Is he even trying? Paste what he's going to write in google doc and it'll correct it for him. Paste it into Chatgpt or bard.
