Former New York Giants star Eli Manning playfully teased NFL legend Tom Brady in a recent social media post.

After the Thanksgiving festivities, the five-time Super Bowl MVP turned heads with an Instagram post highlighting his impressive physique.

The 47-year-old Brady proudly showcased his fishing adventure, captioning the post with, “A little warmer than it looked in Buffalo last night,” referencing the snowy Buffalo Bills vs. San Francisco 49ers game.

As the post went viral, Manning took the opportunity to troll Brady in the most unexpected way.

On X, he shared a side-by-side photo of himself and the retired New England Patriots quarterback and poked fun at Brady’s Instagram post.

Captioned “Cute Minnow, Tom!” the photo showed Brady holding a small fish, while the Giants quarterback proudly displayed a massive catch.

Interestingly, fans adored the hilarious message from Manning.

“I love the Manning-Brady story arc,” one commented.

The same goes for fans who adored the "classic Manning move" and humorously roasted Brady.

“Eli always beats Tom Brady,” a user wrote.

“One of my favorite internet trolls!” a fan added.

“Let him know Eli!!,” a fourth user remarked.

Meanwhile, others joked that Eli Manning should replicate what Tom Brady did in his Instagram post.

“Take your shirt off,” a fan wrote, while the other said, “Yeah, but take the shirt off, Eli……”

As fans would know, Manning and Brady were once rivals on the field. This dates back to Super Bowls XLII and XLVI, when the Giants defeated the Patriots twice.
