Overview
- Eli Manning was not elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his second year of eligibility.
- In a conversation with Jon Gruden, he said he is not bitter and prefers to remember teammates, wins, and other positives from his career.
- His résumé features two Super Bowl MVPs, top-10 career passing totals at retirement, and 210 consecutive starts, the third-most by a quarterback.
- Coverage cites drawbacks that may be holding him back, including three seasons leading the league in interceptions, a 60.3% completion rate, and a 117-117 regular-season record.
- He also weighed in on the broader debate over voting subjectivity, suggesting Bill Belichick’s strained media relations may have influenced the coach’s first-year omission.
