Eli Manning is known to have the highest career earnings of active players with $219 million, and continues to be one of the most marketable NFL players off the field. He is the quarterback for the New York Giants, and played college football for the University of Mississippi from 2000 to 2003. He was drafted as the first overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers, and immediately traded with the Giants for 4th overall selection Philip Rivers. Eli had a Wonderlic score of 39, which is still considered very good. His older brother Peyton Manning holds the record for highest NFL earnings in total. They seem smart enough to get the best deals and hold on to their earnings. Eli Manning has not given any sign of retiring soon, even as he was replaced as starting quarterback by Daniel Jones. Surely he is planning something.
