Michael Strahan is making a bold move toward NFL ownership. The Hall of Fame defensive end is part of a group bidding for a 10 percent stake in the New York Giants—a team he helped lead to a Super Bowl title. According to multiple reports, Strahan has partnered with billionaire investor Marc Lasry to submit the offer. Lasry, the founder of Avenue Capital Group and former co-owner of the Milwaukee Bucks, brings substantial financial muscle to the table.

Eli Manning and Michael Strahan were teammates for years, creating iconic moments on the field for Big Blue. Now, the two Giants legends are entering a new kind of rivalry—this time, not as players, but as potential owners in the Giants’ front office.

Both Manning and Strahan are leading separate groups bidding for a 10 percent minority stake in the Giants. That portion of the franchise is estimated to cost around $750 million, according to Pro Football Talk. Only one group is expected to walk away with the deal.

Strahan Partners with Billionaire Investor.

Strahan isn’t going it alone. He has reportedly partnered with billionaire Marc Lasry, founder of Avenue Capital Group. Lasry is no stranger to sports ownership. He previously owned a share of the Milwaukee Bucks, which he sold in 2023. Even with his financial background, acquiring a piece of a team valued at more than $8 billion still requires a group effort.

Manning Builds His Own Bid.

Eli Manning’s interest in ownership was first reported by Bloomberg in April. While his investment partners have not been named, reports say he has spoken with other retired NFL players and private investors to form a competitive group. Manning, who earned over $250 million during his playing career, will also need additional investors to complete the bid.

Interestingly, Manning and Strahan once discussed teaming up to pursue the deal. According to Sportico, those talks ended when Manning had to withdraw due to potential conflicts with his existing business ventures.

What’s Next for Big Blue’s Future?

With only 10 percent of the franchise available and both bids still in progress, Giants fans are watching closely. Whether Manning or Strahan ends up as part of the ownership group, one thing is clear. The future of the Giants could include a familiar face in the owner’s box.

Ray Flaherty

Ray Flaherty No.1

Ray Flaherty spent the majority of his playing days with the New York Giants, first joining the team in 1929. He briefly left in 1930 to coach basketball at Gonzaga University but returned to the Giants in 1931 and remained through the 1935 season. A standout at the end position, Flaherty earned First-Team All-Pro honors three times. In 1932, he led the NFL in receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns, yards per catch, and receiving yards per game. Flaherty played a key role in helping the Giants win the 1934 NFL Championship. After the 1935 season, the Giants retired his No. 1 jersey—making history as the first professional football team to ever retire a player's number.

Tuffy Leemans

Tuffy Leemans No. 4

Tuffy Leemans played for the New York Giants from 1936 to 1943. He was personally scouted by Wellington Mara and selected in the second round of the inaugural NFL Draft in 1936 out of George Washington University. Mara even sent a telegram to arrange a meeting with Leemans to persuade him to join the Giants. That same year, Leemans was named MVP of the College Football All-Star Game. As a rookie, he led the league in rushing with 830 yards on 206 carries. Leemans earned All-NFL honors in both 1936 and 1939. Known for his toughness, versatility, and leadership, he finished his career with 3,142 rushing yards, 2,324 passing yards, 442 receiving yards, and 16 touchdown passes. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1978.

Mel Hein

Mel Hein: No. 7

Mel Hein joined the New York Giants in 1931 and played 15 seasons. From 1933 to 1940, he was named All-NFL eight years in a row. After a standout college career at Washington State, Hein wrote to three NFL teams offering his services. The Giants secured him with the highest offer: $150 per game. Hein became a dependable 60-minute player, appearing in 170 games without missing a single one during high school, college, or his NFL career. He only left two games briefly and suffered just one injury. In 1938, he was named the league’s Most Valuable Player after anchoring a dominant offensive line that led the Giants to a 23–17 NFL Championship win over the Green Bay Packers at the Polo Grounds. Hein was part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s inaugural class in 1963.

Eli Manning

Eli Manning No. 10

Eli Manning is one of the most decorated players in New York Giants history. He is the only player to spend 16 seasons with the franchise, and his 236 regular-season appearances (including 234 starts) and 248 total games are both team records. Manning led the Giants to two unforgettable Super Bowl wins over the New England Patriots in Super Bowls XLII and XLVI, earning MVP honors in both—making him the only Giant and one of just five players in NFL history to win multiple Super Bowl MVPs. He holds every major career passing record in franchise history and ranks in the NFL’s top 10 all-time with 8,119 pass attempts, 4,895 completions, 57,023 passing yards, and 366 touchdown passes. His career completion rate of 60.29% is the highest in Giants history. Manning also owns the franchise's seven best single-season completion totals and its four top yardage seasons, surpassing 4,000 passing yards seven times. His 1,219 passing yards during the 2011 playoff run remain the most in a single postseason in NFL history. He also holds Giants postseason records with 400 pass attempts, 242 completions, 2,815 yards, and 18 touchdowns. Manning was selected to four Pro Bowls and, in 2016, was named co-winner of the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award—the only Giants player to ever receive the honor.

Phil Simms

Phil Simms No. 11

Phil Simms was George Young’s first draft pick in 1979 and spent his entire 15-year NFL career with the New York Giants. Despite battling injuries early on, he went on to become the most productive quarterback in team history. Simms holds Giants career records for pass attempts (4,647), completions (2,576), passing yards (33,462), and touchdown passes (199). He posted a 95-64 (.597) record as a regular-season starter and went 6-4 in the playoffs. However, Simms is best remembered for his near-perfect performance in Super Bowl XXI, where he led the Giants to a 39-20 win over the Denver Broncos. He completed 22 of 25 passes—including a perfect 10-for-10 in the second half—for 268 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions. In one of the most decisive MVP selections ever, Simms was named the game's Most Valuable Player.

Y.A. Tittle

Y.A. Tittle No. 14

Before the 1961 season, the Giants pulled off one of the best trades in franchise history by acquiring quarterback Y.A. Tittle from the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for guard Lou Cordileone. At 35 years old, Tittle wasted no time making an impact, leading the Giants to their 12th Eastern Division title. Prior to joining the Giants, Tittle had already played two seasons in the All-America Football Conference and 11 in the NFL. In 1962, he set a then-NFL record with 33 touchdown passes and tied another with seven touchdown throws in a single game. Tittle's finest season came in 1963, when he led the league in passing with 221 completions on 367 attempts for 3,145 yards. He threw 36 touchdown passes that year, breaking his own record and setting a Giants single-season mark that still stands. Over his career, Tittle totaled 2,427 completions, 33,070 passing yards, 242 touchdown passes, and 13 games with over 300 passing yards. He was named NFL Player of the Year in 1957, 1961, and 1963, guiding his teams to multiple division titles. Tittle was also selected All-NFL in 1957, 1962, and 1963, and appeared in six Pro Bowls. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1971.

Ward Cuff

Ward Cuff No. 14

Ward Cuff joined the Giants as a fourth-round draft pick out of Marquette in 1937 and played through the 1945 season, excelling in multiple roles. Versatile and dependable, Cuff contributed as a wingback, fullback, halfback, defensive back, and kicker. He rushed for 1,766 yards on 330 carries, averaging an impressive 5.3 yards per attempt, and added 101 receptions for 1,477 yards. Cuff scored 18 total touchdowns—six on the ground and 12 through the air—and was also reliable in the kicking game, converting 31 of 70 field goal attempts and 98 of 102 extra points. He averaged 12.1 yards per punt return and recorded 13 career interceptions on defense.

Frank Gifford

Frank Gifford No. 16

Frank Gifford, inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1977, played for the Giants from 1952 to 1964. He briefly retired in 1961 after a serious injury but made a successful comeback in 1962. One of the most versatile players in NFL history, Gifford was the Giants’ first-round draft pick in 1952 following an All-America career at USC. Over his career, he totaled 9,862 all-purpose yards, rushing for 3,609 yards, catching 367 passes, and scoring 484 points. Gifford made history by being selected to the Pro Bowl as a defensive back in 1953 and as an offensive back in 1954—an NFL first. He earned seven Pro Bowl selections, was named All-NFL four times, and was the league’s Player of the Year in 1956. Gifford still holds the franchise record with 78 total touchdowns. A true triple-threat, he also threw 14 touchdown passes on just 60 halfback option attempts. After initially retiring in 1960, he returned in 1962 as a flanker. During his career, the Giants reached the NFL Championship game five times, including their 1956 title win.

Al Blozis

Al Blozis. No. 32

Al Blozis played only three seasons with the Giants, from 1942 to 1944, but left a lasting impact. He quickly impressed upon joining the team in 1942 and earned a starting role at tackle. Blozis appeared in the 1944 NFL Championship Game against Green Bay. Shortly after the Giants' loss to the Packers, he was deployed overseas to serve in World War II. A lieutenant in the U.S. Army, Blozis was killed in action in France just six weeks later. In his honor, the Giants retired his No. 32 jersey.

Joe Morrison

Joe Morrison. No. 40

Joe Morrison played for the Giants from 1959 to 1972, lining up as both a back and an end during his impressive 14-year career. A consistent and versatile contributor, he rushed for 2,472 yards and scored 18 touchdowns, while also recording 395 receptions—the third-most in team history—for 4,993 yards and 47 touchdowns. Known for his adaptability, Morrison played six different positions: fullback, halfback, flanker, tight end, split end, and defensive back. In recognition of his impact, the Giants retired his No. 40 jersey.

Charlie Conerly

Charlie Conerly No. 42

Charlie Conerly is often regarded as the greatest Giants player not enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He spent his entire career with the team from 1948 to 1961 and played a key role on the 1956 NFL Championship squad. Conerly earned NFL Rookie of the Year honors in 1948, was named league MVP in 1959, and made the Pro Bowl in 1950 and 1956. He ranks third in Giants history in pass attempts (2,833) and touchdown passes (173), fourth in completions (1,418), and third in passing yards (19,488). He also sits second in franchise history with 167 interceptions thrown.

Ken Strong

Ken Strong No. 50

Ken Strong played for the Giants during two separate stints: from 1933 to 1935, again in 1939, and from 1944 to 1947. A true all-around talent, he excelled as a blocker, runner, passer, punter, placekicker, and defensive player. At the time of his retirement, Strong held the franchise scoring record with 324 points, coming from 13 touchdowns, 35 field goals, and 141 extra points. He famously scored 17 points in the Giants' 1934 NFL Championship win over the Chicago Bears in the legendary “Sneakers Game.” Strong led the NFL in scoring in 1933 with 64 points and earned All-NFL honors in 1934. After beginning his pro career with the Staten Island Stapletons in 1932, he joined the Giants before spending two years in the AFL. When he returned to the Giants from 1944 to 1947, he contributed primarily as a placekicking specialist. Over his career, Strong scored a total of 479 points. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1967.

Lawrence Taylor

Lawrence Taylor No. 56

Lawrence Taylor joined the Giants as the second overall pick in the 1981 NFL Draft and spent his entire 13-year career with the team. At the time of his retirement, he ranked second in NFL history with 132.5 career sacks—excluding the 9.5 sacks from his rookie year in 1981, before the stat was officially recorded. Taylor made history by earning 10 straight Pro Bowl selections from 1981 to 1990. He was named NFL Rookie of the Year in 1981 and earned NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors nine times (starting in 1984), as well as Defensive Player of the Month twice—in October 1986 and September 1989. A unanimous choice for the NFL’s All-1980s Team, Taylor was also a unanimous NFL MVP in 1986, when he posted 20.5 sacks, 105 tackles, five passes defensed, and two forced fumbles. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1999.

Michael Strahan

Michael Strahan No. 92

Michael Strahan was one of the most reliable and productive players in Giants history. He rarely missed a practice and played in a franchise-record 216 regular-season games. From 1996 until a torn pectoral muscle ended his 2004 season, Strahan appeared in 136 straight games. A seven-time Pro Bowler, he was named NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2001 and was voted the Giants’ MVP in both 1998 and 2001. He served as a team captain during the Giants’ Super Bowl-winning season in 2007. Strahan holds the official franchise record with 141.5 career sacks—the fifth-most in NFL history. (Lawrence Taylor had 142.0, but 9.5 came before sacks were tracked officially.) He set an NFL single-season record with 22.5 sacks in 2001 and led the league again in 2003 with 18.5, making him the only Giant to lead the NFL in sacks twice. Known for more than just pass rushing, Strahan also totaled 868 tackles, showcasing his dominance against the run. He was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2014.

The post New York Giants Retired Jersey Numbers first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

NFL legend Eli Manning is looking to take on a new role—this time as a potential part-owner of the New York Giants. According to a report from Bloomberg, the two-time Super Bowl MVP is putting together a group to bid for a minority stake in the franchise he led for 16 memorable seasons.

Only One Team for Eli

Back in January, Manning hinted at his interest in becoming an NFL owner—but made it clear there was just one team he had in mind. “There’s probably only one team I’d be interested in pursuing,” he said in an interview with CNBC. “It’s the one I played for for 16 years.”

Manning spent his entire career in New York, earning two Super Bowl titles and etching his name into Giants history. Now, he’s looking to carry that legacy into the boardroom.

Giants Exploring Minority Sale

In February, the Giants revealed that the Mara and Tisch families had hired investment firm Moelis & Co. to look into the potential sale of a minority, non-controlling stake. The Giants, one of the NFL’s oldest franchises, have been co-owned by the Mara and Tisch families for decades. The Mara family has been involved since the team’s founding in 1925, while the Tisch family purchased 50% in 1991.

What’s at Stake?

Sources say that up to 10% of the franchise could be up for sale. With the team valued at over $8 billion, even a small slice is a major investment. Negotiations are still ongoing, and no decisions have been finalized.

One thing is certain—if Eli Manning becomes part of the ownership group, the Giants would gain not just an investor, but a true franchise icon.

The post Eli Manning Autograph Signing 8/16/24 first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

Eli Manning, the famous quarterback for the New York Giants, gave one of my favorite quotes after Super Bowl XLVI: “Pressure is something you feel when you don’t know what the hell you’re doing.” This quote perfectly captures Manning’s career and the spirit of our Giants.

Super Bowl XLVI, on February 5, 2012, was unforgettable. The Giants played the New England Patriots. The stakes were high, but Eli led us to a thrilling 21-17 victory. He earned his second Super Bowl MVP award. This win was especially sweet because we had beaten the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII four years earlier. Manning led us to another amazing victory.

Eli Manning’s Poise Under Pressure

During the post-game press conference, a reporter asked Manning about handling the intense pressure. Eli’s response, “Pressure is something you feel when you don’t know what the hell you’re doing,” was classic Eli—calm, confident, and accurate. It showed how preparation and knowledge can turn pressure into performance. Eli wasn’t just playing football; he was following a plan he knew well. This is why he could stay cool under the most intense circumstances.

This quote resonates deeply with me and many other fans. It’s more than just a soundbite; it’s a life lesson. Eli’s ability to stay calm in high-stress moments wasn’t just luck. It was the result of careful preparation and a deep understanding of the game. Remember that amazing game-winning drive in the final minutes of Super Bowl XLVI? It was a masterclass in staying calm and executing under pressure.

For us Giants fans, this quote reminds us why we love Eli. It speaks to a broader truth: confidence and calmness in the face of adversity come from being prepared and knowing your stuff. Whether in sports, work, or any part of life, feeling overwhelmed often comes from not being ready. Eli’s words inspire us to prepare well and face challenges head-on, just like he did on that glorious night in Indianapolis.

The post Eli Manning: Always Calm Under Pressure first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

A long-standing tradition will continue in the blazing heat as New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones will host a group of Giants receivers this week in North Carolina.

Jones mentioned earlier in the off-season that he would be putting together the trip, which is taking place this week, per a report from ESPN’s Jordan Raanan. We don’t yet know which receivers are attending the trip, and we’ll update when we know more. Though Raanan’s tweet confirming that it’s happening does feature a short video from Wan’Dale Robinson of Jalin Hyatt on a jet ski.

Barring a radical (and unreported) change in the NFL’s rules, it’s unlikely that jet skis will figure heavily in the Giants’ passing attack. But these trips are about more than running routes and catching passes — there’s only so much a player can improve throwing and catching against air. They’re also about building familiarity and chemistry outside of the locker room, in the hopes that it will carry through to when things really start to matter in training camp and into the season.

The informal passing camps have been a regular occurrence for the Giants, dating back to the spring and summer of 2011. That year, Eli Manning organized meet-ups with receivers like Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz, Ramses Barden, and Jerrel Jernigan at facilities in Hoboken and at Duke. Those sessions were in lieu of workouts and mini-camps that were canceled by the lockout which disrupted that year’s off-season.

Manning kept the tradition up even after the advent of the new CBA, and passed it on to Jones.

The post Daniel Jones hosts the receivers in North Carolina first appeared on Bleedbigblue.com.

The New York Giants and their fan base seem to have made the transition from Eli Manning to Daniel Jones without much fanfare.

The two men are similar in many ways — laid back, respectful to the media and fans, and professional in their approach to the game.

“I think that’s why we’ve become pals and stayed in touch. I’ve never had resentment toward him in any way just because I appreciate the way he’s handled his business,” Eli said of Jones in an interview with The Athletic. “I appreciate the way he’s come in and worked hard and dealt with the controversy and dealt with the ups and downs. He’s always wanted to make improvements and get better. I appreciate his attitude and his commitment to football. I’m rooting for him and I’m a fan of him.”

These days, Manning — who played his entire 16-year NFL career with Big Blue, ending in 2019 — is more of a fan but still finds some time to mentor his former teammate, friend, and successor.

Earlier this summer, the two hung out together at Eli’s house in the Hamptons. As one can imagine, it wasn’t quite a blowout of a party.

“He was a good houseguest,” Manning said. “We had a good time, definitely had some fun. We played some golf, worked out — he worked out and threw, I just kind of was out there coaching some of the kids up. It was good to hang out with him and get to do that.”

Both men are swimming in money and fame but you’d never know it. They get up every day and go about their business. When Manning retired, he had the distinction of making the most money of any player in NFL history over their career. He is now one of the most successful sports celebrity pitchmen in the world. His newest gig is for the beer conglomerate Corona.

Jones is following his predecessor, inking a four-year extension worth $160 million. Many panned the deal, saying Jones hasn’t had enough success yet to earn such a payday. Manning disagrees.

“It can be stressful when you don’t know what your circumstances are — where you’re playing or how you’re thought of,” he said. “You’ve got coaches changing and GMs changing. I think (it’s important) for him to know this coaching staff and upper management have faith in him and have trust in him that he can go out there and earn everything that he’s gotten.”

What Jones doesn’t have yet that Manning does is a championship. Eli said Jones wants that badly and is determined not only to take the Giants to the top but to be one of the best quarterbacks in the game.

“I think he still feels like he has a lot to prove, that he wants to win a championship, be one of the best quarterbacks. That’s what he’s working toward. I think he’s worked really hard. I think he feels very comfortable in this offense and being the leader of this team and taking ownership and that responsibility. He wants to go out there and play well,” Manning said.

Manning stays close to the game these days. He’s hard to miss. He lives in New Jersey, attends Giant games frequently and is seen all over in his countless ads for a myriad of products.

It’s been four years since Eli donned the blue. He was asked what it is like for him to watch a game in 2023.

“I think just like the average fan. If I’m at the game, I’ve got my kids. I’m just sitting there and usually, I’m going to get them snacks and food. I’ve got my Corona and just enjoying the atmosphere,” Manning said. “I’m not trying to watch too much of the defense and what’s going on. I don’t know the plays coming in, I don’t know their offense and what they’re doing.

“Sometimes, if I really get to sit there and have a moment for critical plays in the game — the two-minute drives, the fourth-quarter situations — I’ll get dialed in a little bit just so if I see Daniel after the game, I can say, ‘That was good. They were playing this.’ I can talk ball with him, which not everybody can do.”

Hopefully, they’ll be talking about Super Bowls at some point.

Legendary Giants coach Tom Coughlin takes readers inside his coaching masterpiece: Super Bowl XLII when Eli Manning and the underdog Giants beat the undefeated, 18-0 Patriots of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.

Coach Coughlin reveals the intricacies of the game, revealing details only a coach would know. He also details, more than ever before, his relationships with some of the greatest, most iconic players of those Giants teams, like Eli Manning and Michael Strahan.

A GIANT WIN also provides a frame for Coach Coughlin to discuss his life in football—including his years with the Giants as an assistant coach in the late 1980s and 1990, when he helped win a Super Bowl working under Hall of Fame Head Coach Bill Parcells and alongside the coach he’d oppose in Super Bowl XLII: Bill Belichick.
