Eli Manning is known for many things. There’s those 2 times he beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl, his Monday Night Football broadcast with his brother, and most of the world being wrong about whether or not he belongs in the Hall of Fame.
One thing that Manning is not particularly well known for is his athleticism. He posted a 4.9 second 40 yard dash time at the NFL combine when he was getting ready for the draft and didn’t participate in any other athletic testing.
Today, he decided to take part in one of those other athletic tests that he skipped in 2004. Manning took his shot at the vertical leap test and it did not go particularly well.
With the NFL Combine going on, I felt inspired to test my vertical jump. I really felt like I was jumping so high! pic.twitter.com/bHwXX89exD

Manning posted the video to Twitter and he has been getting roasted by fans ever since.

Now I really just wish we’d have gotten to see Eli Manning take a crack at this test back when he was preparing for the draft.
