Eli Manning Seeks Minority Ownership in Giants

Eli Manning expressed interest in acquiring a minority stake in the New York Giants, the team he played for during his career, stating, "It’s definitely something of interest." However, the Mara family, which has owned the franchise since its inception in 1925, has no plans to sell any part of the team. Manning, who has a net worth of around $160 million, emphasized that the Giants are the only team he would consider for ownership. Following a disappointing season, the Giants announced they would retain head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen, a decision Manning supports for continuity. The NFL has recently allowed private equity investment for minority stakes, leading to transactions in other teams but not yet the Giants. Despite his aspirations, the likelihood of Manning acquiring a stake appears slim as the franchise remains firmly controlled by its current owners.
