Former NFL quarterback Eli Manning jovially congratulates Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams on passing him in all-time yards.
Unfortunately, this means someone had to be bumped out, and it was none other than former New York Giants star Eli Manning, who has won two Super Bowls and has been named to four Pro Bowls.
"Hey Matthew, just want to congratulate you on breaking into the Top 10 in career passing yards," Manning said. "You knocked me out of the Top 10, so I'm not really sure why I am congratulating you." Matthew Stafford cracking the NFL's top 10 in career passing yards feels very personal to Eli Manning.. "And I'm sure at the end of the season or whatnot, I will spend more time thinking about that kind of stuff. I was a fan of this game long before I became a player of it in the NFL and to be mentioned with some of those guys is a really cool, humbling thing for me."
In his time with Detroit, Stafford led the Lions to their first playoff game in 12 seasons. Additionally, he was named to the Pro Bowl in 2014 and was NFL Comeback Player of the Year in 2011. He was named to the Detroit Lions All-Time Team in 2019.
