Manning, who won two Super Bowl titles with the organization before retiring after the 2019 season, had his No. 10 jersey retired and his name added to the team’s Ring of Honor at MetLife Stadium.
During the ceremony, Manning and former Giants wideout David Tyree reenacted their famous connection from the 2008 Super Bowl, when the quarterback escaped a sack from three New England Patriots defenders and threw a pass to Tyree, who caught the ball against his helmet.
