Nearly everything Eli Manning touches turns to gold.
A two-time Super Bowl winner, the former quarterback holds the joint NFL record for the longest-ever touchdown pass (99 yards) while he stands alone when it comes to the record for the most passing yards during the postseason.
Eli, who beat Tom Brady to win both of his rings, was in the thick of things at a Florida casino last Thursday, with TMZ reporting that he “appeared to win big” after getting in from Las Vegas, where he took in Super Bowl 58 and watched the Chiefs win.
According to the publication, the NFL legend had nearly $40,000 in chips at a craps table while playing alongside some other folk.
“TMZ Sports has learned … the New York Giants legend rolled dice at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL for hours on Thursday night — and he appeared to win BIG,” a report reads.
“One witness tells us … Manning showed up before 9:30 PM and stayed past 2:30 AM — albeit with a short break for food at some point — seemingly raking in cash throughout the evening.”
The video below shows the ex-QB celebrating with high-fives and hugs at one point.
