Torrent Description
Eli Manning was born into football royalty. His father, Archie Manning, was an All-American and an NFL star quarterback. His brother, Peyton, is a household name, thanks to his skills as a quarterback in college and in the NFL. Although Eli also turned into a football star--a No.1 NFL draft pick--many critics doubted he could be successful. But then came his heroics in Super Bowl XLII as he led his team, the New York Giants, to one of the biggest upsets in the history of the championship game as his team defeated the seemingly unstoppable New England Patriots. Although he still faces the pressure of playing in the same profession as his superstar brother, Eli has won his own accolades due to his skill and leadership on the field. This brand-new biography delves into Manning's upbringing, how he achieved success in the NFL, and how he is a leader on the field and in his community.
