New York Giants fans are soon going to get to see arguably the most beloved player in franchise history get a gold jacket. Eli Manning is in his second year on the Hall-of-Fame ballot, and just got one step closer to finally becoming an NFL Hall-of-Famer.
On Wednesday, the Hall-of-Fame class was cut down from 128 to 52, and Manning made the cut. Last season, he made it to the final 15 before not being selected, but it seems like the arrow is pointing up regarding his chances in 2026.
Additionally, Tom Coughlin is one of 12 coaches to advance to the next stage, meaning that the 2007 and 2011 Giants could soon have a lot of representation in Canton.
