LeBron James says Elway or Manning get final spot on QB Mount Rushmore

Current NBA star and future Hall of Famer Lebron James isn’t shy about his sports affiliations in terms of fandom. He is a fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes in college football and the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL. When he makes a sports take, people usually listen.

Most recently, James shared his Mount Rushmore of NFL quarterbacks, listing Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Joe Montana as his top three quarterbacks. He has either Denver Broncos legends Peyton Manning or John Elway to fill out the fourth spot.

Another Broncos legend gave his take, Shannon Sharpe, in which he supports why Lebron is indecisive between Manning and Elway.

“It gets a little tricky when it gets to that fourth spot,” Sharpe said, via Susanna Weir of DenverBroncos.com. “You got Peyton Manning, five MVPs, two Super Bowls. You got John, who I played with for a decade, and he wins two [Super Bowls] [and] goes to five [Super Bowls].”

Either way, you must respect James for making his own opinions based on his eye test, not anyone else’s.
