Manning’s 15-season career with the Giants is highlighted by two Super Bowl titles and two Super Bowl MVP nods — all of which came against the New England Patriots. He currently owns a 117-117-0 record and started in an impressive 210 straight games between 2004 and 2017.
The 39-year-old spent most of the 2019 season on the bench while rookie Daniel Jones took over signal-calling duties for the Giants. His last appearance came against the Miami Dolphins on Dec. 15, when he lead the Giants to victory for likely the final time.
