The Giants honored a franchise legend on Sunday as Eli Manning's No. 10 jersey was retired and the two-time Super Bowl MVP was inducted into the Ring of Honor.
Manning was joined at the ceremony by many former teammates. Shaun O'Hara, his former center, was with him on stage, while some of his offensive linemen, including Chris Snee, Kevin Boothe, Kareem McKenzie, Rich Seubert and David Diehl, escorted Manning to the platform.
Additionally, Justin Tuck, Amani Toomer, Victor Cruz, Mario Manningham, David Tyree, Plaxico Burress, Kevin Boss, Ahmad Bradshaw, Zak DeOssie, Corey Webster, Jay Alford, Mathias Kiwanuka, and Jeff Feagles all lined up in front of the stage for the ceremony.
Surrounded by former teammates and coaches, Manning stood at midfield near the visitor's sideline and told the raucous crowd, "Wellington Mara said, 'Once a Giant, always a Giant.' I'm glad I'm only a Giant."
Here is how social media reacted to Eli Manning's special day.
