Tom Brady and Eli Manning Trade Jabs Over Fishing Photos and Super Bowl History

The retired NFL legends reignite their friendly rivalry on social media with playful barbs referencing their iconic Super Bowl matchups.

Tom Brady shared a shirtless fishing photo on Instagram, prompting Eli Manning to post a side-by-side comparison featuring his own larger catch with the caption, 'Cute Minnow, Tom!'
Brady responded with a reference to David Tyree's famous helmet catch from Super Bowl XLII, asking Manning, 'You use a helmet to catch that one too?'
The exchange recalls their historic Super Bowl rivalry, where Manning's Giants defeated Brady's Patriots in both 2008 and 2012 championship games.
Both quarterbacks have transitioned to media roles, with Manning co-hosting ESPN's 'ManningCast' and Brady serving as Fox's lead NFL analyst.
The lighthearted back-and-forth highlights the enduring camaraderie and competitiveness between the two retired football icons.
