Peyton Manning Wears Eli's Jersey on Monday Night Football's 'Manning Cast'

A Manning brother always repays his debts.

Peyton and Eli Manning made their triumphant return to the air waves for Monday night's matchup between the Saints and Seahawks, and there was plenty of intrigue before the game even started. Peyton appeared on screen rocking Eli's Ole Miss jersey as part of a lost bet from two weeks ago, when Tennessee—Peyton's alma mater—lost to the Rebels at Neyland Stadium. In typical Manning fashion, the settled bet did not come without the usual brotherly verbal sparring.

"I know you asked for one of my own, real jerseys," Eli said after Peyton complained his was too small.
