Speaking with The Athletic, Arch Manning's dad Cooper spoke on the impact Peyton and Eli have had on his son's development, and it sounds like it was mostly from a distance given their busy post-NFL lives...

"As much as they are great influences, they weren't around a ton," Manning admitted. "I don't think Eli ever saw Arch play a high school or college football game. He is coming in this year. Peyton would come in for a game or two occasionally. Arch would see them at the Manning Passing Academy and may see 'em at Mardi Gras, but that's like five nights in a year, so it's hard to say whether he's 'like them or like someone else.'"
"I do think you can pick up little pieces of people that you like. Arch is probably just as likely to pick up a habit of Patrick Mahomes as he is of Eli with things that you just like about people and the way they handle themselves," he added. "And fortunately, anybody who watches anything can get more exposure to players they like and want to mimic."
