NFL analyst: Carson Beck a lot like Giants legend Eli Manning
Eli Manning is arguably one of the most talented quarterbacks in New York Giants’ history. A two-time Super Bowl winner, two-time Super Bowl MVP, and four-time Pro-Bowler. A player who led by example, spoke quietly expected to be heard, and looked out for his guys on and off the field.
Carson Beck is the starting quarterback for the University of Georgia Bulldogs. After sitting behind Stetson Bennett for three years, Beck led the Bulldogs to its third straight playoff appearance and is already a Heisman favorite heading into 2024.
NFL analyst Daniel Jeremiah recently scouted Beck and noted that Beck reminded him of future Hall of Fame quarterback Eli Manning.
Beck is already on the radar of many NFL teams that know they need a quarterback in their future, so if he plays to the best of his ability this season, he will remain a major player in the Heisman talks. On top of that, he will likely earn himself a draft spot early in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Will the Giants be interested in this Eli clone? Early mock drafts suggest they will but Daniel Jones has the power to change that with an impressive season.
