Eli Manning Nominated for Pro Football Hall of Fame

Eli Manning, the former New York Giants quarterback and two-time Super Bowl MVP, has been nominated for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2025, marking his first year of eligibility. Alongside Manning, the list of 167 modern-era nominees includes notable first-time candidates such as Marshawn Lynch, Adam Vinatieri, and Terrell Suggs. The selection process will see a screening committee cut the nominees down to 50, followed by further reductions to 25 semifinalists and then 15 finalists, with the new class announced prior to Super Bowl LIX. While Manning retired with a .500 record and led the NFL in interceptions three times, he ranks 10th all-time in passing yards and is celebrated for his Super Bowl victories against Tom Brady's Patriots. His legacy includes numerous franchise records for the Giants and accolades like the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award. The Hall of Fame selection will ultimately depend on the committee's votes in February 2025.
