Marshall Manning is the next man up. The son of Peyton Manning looked identical to his cousin, Arch Manning, during his first high school football scrimmage at the Baylor School.

Although he is slated as the backup in 2026, he will be ready if/when called upon!

There will be plenty of chances for Manning to see the field during his first season of high school football. Friday was just the beginning.

Marshall Manning is the son of Peyton Manning.

While Arch enters his fourth season of college football at Texas as a Heisman Trophy frontrunner, the next Manning quarterback is already waiting in the wings. Marshall Manning will begin his freshman year of high school in just a few weeks.

The 15-year-old son of Peyton Manning, who first went viral for slinging the pill at the the Pro Bowl Games, serves as the backup to Ole Miss commit Keegan Croucher at the Baylor School in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Red Raiders are the favorites to repeat as Division II, Class AAA champions in large part because of Croucher and five-star running back commit David Gabriel Georges.

Although it is far too early to crown Marshall Manning as the next generational quarterback prospect, he already looks the part. His cannon arm was on full display at a 7-on-7 event during the spring and he continues to put in work with QB Country.

The Baylor School will give Manning as many opportunities to compete as possible. The Red Raiders are going to win a lot of games in blowout fashion so there will be plenty of reps for the backup.

In the meantime, he sounds just like his dad during practice.

He also looks like his cousin during games! Well, scrimmages.

His high school football debut was short, but sweet.

The Baylor School traveled to Georgia on Friday to scrimmage against Buford, one of the top programs in the country. It was the high school football debut for the Red Raiders’ backup quarterback.

Marshall Manning let it rip during the 7-on-7 period.

He also got his first live reps as a freshman during the team period.

Unfortunately, a series of bad snaps limited his ability to make plays throughout most of the evening. However, there was one specific moment that stood out.

Marshall looked just like his cousin Arch on a rollout to the right.

Here is a more complete look at the evening:

Even if Marshall Manning’s debut was not that impressive, to no fault of his own, he is excited to finally get on the field.

The pressure of the Manning name is a lot to live up to. There is no family more prepared!
