Eli Manning trolls Tom Brady by sharing funny ‘Tiger King’ parody

Eli Manning is one of very few players in the NFL community who can say he kept Tom Brady from having the perfect career, and the former New York Giants quarterback clearly has no problem calling attention to that now that he has retired.

On Sunday, Manning shared a clip from a funny “Tiger King” parody that will presumably be a part of the ESPYs broadcast. It featured actor JK Simmons playing the role of TV producer Rick Kirkham, who produced a show for “Tiger King” star Joe Exotic and was a huge part of the Netflix documentary. In the parody, Simmons describes Brady as a “mythical character” who destroyed everyone in his path — except one person. Check it out:

Look @TomBrady — they made a documentary about us!

Manning, of course, helped ruin the New England Patriots’ perfect season in 2008. His New York Giants then defeated Brady’s Patriots again in a Super Bowl rematch four years later.

Manning’s jab at Brady wasn’t quite as ruthless as some of the shots his older brother Peyton has taken at No. 12, but these are the reasons we love the friendly Brady-Manning rivalry.
