Retired New York Giants quarterback and future Hall of Fame, Elli Manning did not leave the world of football after his retirement. Neither was his brother, Peyton.
For the past three years, the brothers have hosted “Manning Cast” every Monday night Monday Night Soccerbut it is not the only venture in which the brothers are part of it.
For the third time, Fan Duell ran the Kick of Destiny Challenge on Sunday, and was called Kick of Destiny 3.
What began as a Super Bowl commercial featuring Rob Gronkowski trying a 25-yard field goal has transformed into something else. This year, the Manning brothers took it to a new level and made it a race.
You can find the rules here.
At 3pm Eastern time on the show before the match, Eli and Payton squared. Eli won the toss and Peyton chose to kick first.
In round one, they kicked from 25 yards, and both brothers missed.
In the second round, they moved the spot into a 20-yard field goal attempt. Payton went first again, and it seemed his attempt might creep up before standing upright and bouncing back.
Then it was Eli’s turn. He set the ball, took a step, hyped the crowd, lined up kicks… that was good!

Eli Manning defeated Payton again. He is currently 3-0 in the Pro Bowl and 1-0 in the kick.
After winning, Manning said it was “worthy” and mentioned the pain he actually went through.
His younger brother is above his older brother and will have the right to brag no matter how long he loves him.
