New York Giants’ Eli Manning: The most unique career in NFL history

On Friday morning, the illustrious career of Eli Manning officially came to an end after he announced his retirement from the NFL after 16 tremendous seasons. No other player in the 95 years the New York Giants franchise has been around had played more seasons with the team.

Several current and former teammates were in attendance to show support and to honor their quarterback.

Manning’s retirement is an end of an era in more ways than one, as he was the last remaining Giant acquired by the late Wellington Mara.

His career was unlike any other quarterback before him.
